Goalkeeping is a precarious career where someone is more likely to be remembered for their mistakes than successes as Karima Taieb found out as her two errors, among a litany of saves, set Chelsea on their way to the Women’s FA Cup final at Manchester City’s expense.
The game was settled within five first-half minutes as first Erin Cuthbert thrashed the ball through Taieb’s hands, before Melanie Leupolz did similar but in a tamer fashion to leave the goalkeeper crestfallen as City’s hopes of a third successive FA Cup triumph were dashed, with Beth England putting the result beyond doubt late on.
