By Jamie Spencer At Wembley Stadium on Sunday afternoon, Manchester United or Tottenham Hotspur will lift the Women's FA Cup for the first time. Whoever wins, one team will make history for themselves. But this final also means a lot for the competitive status of the wider women's game in England. The FA Cup trophy has been exclusively the domain of Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City for more than a decade. The last club outside the WSL's established 'big three' to get their hands on it was Birmingham in 2012, beating a pre-Emma Hayes Chelsea on penalties. Prior to the that Arsenal appeared ...

By Jamie Spencer The kind of consistency that underpinned Manchester United's fight for trophies on two fronts last season – in the WSL and Women’s FA Cup – hasn't been there in 2023/24. United have had some big highs this season, including thrashing Everton, West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur in the first half of the campaign. None more so than a long-awaited first victory over Chelsea in the last four of the cup, the only domestic opponent they had never beaten. But home and away defeats to Liverpool, dropping points they weren't doing last season against the likes of Tottenham at home, W...

By Sean Walsh From generation to generation, Tottenham Hotspur supporters have passed on stories of 'glory glory' nights. Those tales were much more glorious in years past. The 1951 and 1961 Division One titles. The 1972 and 1984 UEFA Cups. The various FA Cups that Spurs used to win at a canter barely breaking into a sweat. Tottenham in the 21st century have been known for their over-performance in the Premier League rather than their tangible success. Always good enough to compete, not good enough to get more trophies into the cabinet. Qualifying for the Champions League became the obsession ...

By Jude Summerfield Few football fans would have predicted Borussia Dortmund to reach the Champions League final at the start of the season, but here we are. BVB have largely struggled to make much of an impact in the Bundesliga, where they currently sit in fifth, and lost talismanic midfielder Jude Bellingham to Real Madrid after heartbreakingly missing out on the title on goal difference last term. But while their league performance has been largely underwhelming, Dortmund have been strong in Europe. Edin Terzic's side lost only group-stage game despite being paired with Paris Saint-Germain,...

It's time to get to know the Premier League's newest outfit, so here are six players to keep an eye out for. Leif DavisLeif Davis managed 21 assists in 43 games from left-back. Eat your heart out, ...

By James Cormack It's simple, this game we all love. Football, eh? Dumb it down and aliens would wonder exactly what it was about this 'sport' that captivates an entire species. It's just a few folks running around within a marked area trying to kick a spherical object into a net, after all. Break it down like that and, yes, they might wonder where the exhilaration lies and football was once a pastime of distinct primitivity. A game which formerly celebrated vigour and violence has evolved into an art form lauded as 'beautiful'. Cultural differences have reflected alternate interpretations of ...
