Manchester United made light work of the Adobe Women’s FA Cup Final as they hammered four past Tottenham Hotspur in a sold out Wembley with goals from Ella Toone, Lucia Garcia and Rachel Williams.

And former Reading FC stars, goalkeeper Mary Earps and Welsh contingent Gemma Evans were there to collect the trophy.

Earps had a relatively quiet game with the North London side failing to really test the England international despite a dominant first half display and a second half header from Beth England which hit the crossbar.

Gemmas Evans remained an unused substitute but was there to lend a helping hand to injured Leah Galton as she hobbled up the famous Wembley steps to lift the trophy in front of the packed crowd.
