Manchester City finished the 2020/21 season on a high, booking a place in the quarter-finals of the Vitality Women's FA Cup.

Goals from Ellen White, Janine Beckie, Rose Lavelle, Sam Mewis and Lauren Hemp secured the holders’ place in the last eight with a thumping 5-1 win over West Ham, as Gareth Taylor‘s side continued our defence of the trophy to sign off on a fittingly positive note.

An entertaining clash at the Academy Stadium saw the 2019 Finalists lock horns in another action-packed encounter, as the pair met for the second time in a week after last weekend’s thrilling FA Women’s Super League finale.
