Chelsea continued their pursuit of a quadruple by defeating Liverpool in the FA Cup semi-final, demonstrating their resilience with another comeback victory. The match marked Chelsea's eighth game since January requiring a late rally or comeback. Aggie Beever-Jones secured victory with a 94th-minute header, showcasing Chelsea's tenacity, despite the match's difficulties. Former midfielder Fara Williams and ex-defender Anita Asante reaffirmed the team's winning mentality and belief. Boss Sonia Bompastor called for more from her players, who managed notable possession and pressure but struggled to convert chances effectively throughout the game.
"Ruthless is the only way to describe this Chelsea team. They have a crazy winning mentality. They didn't win pretty today - it looked ugly at times."
"We said collectively a goal was going to come - and it did. Sometimes as players you try so hard that you make mistakes and that's fine."
