She collided with the Spurs goalkeeper and both players had to receive some medical attention. Luckily, they carried on with proceedings and it was nothing serious.<\/p>\n<p>The Red Devils were easily the dominant side as evidenced by having the lion&#8217;s share of possession and attempting the most shots, both on-target and off-target.<\/p>\n<p>The opening 45 minutes were largely characterised by nerves and some poor finishing, up until seconds before the interval when Ella Toone came up with a moment of magic.<\/p>\n<p>She took the ball and expertly evaded a tackle from Eveliina Summanen before firing a rocket from outside the area into the back of the net, giving Spencer no chance whatsoever of keeping it out.<\/p>\n<p>It was an electric goal from Toone &#8211; her fourth in seven Wembley appearances.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">TOONEY, THAT&#39;S UNBELIEVABLE \ud83d\ude31\ud83e\udd2f<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ManUtdWomen?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@ManUtdWomen<\/a> star with an incredible long-range hit \ud83d\ude2e\u200d\ud83d\udca8<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AdobeWomensFACup?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AdobeWomensFACup<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/t4XarP88JZ\">pic.twitter.com\/t4XarP88JZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Adobe Women&#39;s FA Cup (@AdobeWFACup) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdobeWFACup\/status\/1789662501052801340?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 12, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>United came out after the break stronger as they looked to pile further misery on Spurs. Six minutes later, Skinner made his first personnel change as he took off Galton and replaced her with Melvine Malard. Galton was in tears, sparking fears that she may have picked up an injury.<\/p>\n<p>United were very strong in their set-pieces and looked dangerous every time a ball was put into the Spurs box. It was therefore unsurprising that their second goal came in this fashion. Williams rose highest to head in home a sublime cross from Katie Zelem to double the team&#8217;s lead and firmly put them in the driving seat.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Rachel Williams always rises highest \u2b06\ufe0f<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AdobeWomensFACup?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AdobeWomensFACup<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wIh4G3nJXM\">pic.twitter.com\/wIh4G3nJXM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Adobe Women&#39;s FA Cup (@AdobeWFACup) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdobeWFACup\/status\/1789671956062585195?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 12, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>A third would come just three minutes later in the 57th minute, this time through Lucia Garcia who was brilliant throughout the game. She capitalised on a howler from Spencer. The Spurs shot-stopper, in an attempt to clear, handed the ball to Garcia.

Malard crossed it in before Lisa Naalsund tapped it to the excellent Garcia, who was undoubtedly United&#8217;s most outstanding player.
