Reading FC Women drawn away in FA Cup Fifth Round

The Royals will head to Brisbane Road for the Fifth Round match

Grace Moloney’s penalty-saving heroics have earned Reading FC Women another away day in the Vitality Women’s FA Cup.

The Fifth Round draw has pitted the Royals against their FA WSL rivals Tottenham Hotspur as they look to make it through to the Quarter Finals – the third time they will have faced Spurs this season with a further FA WSL tie to come.

Moloney offered a timely reminder of her abilities on Sunday, saving three penalties in the shootout after Sanne Troelsgaard had given Reading an early lead and captain Emma Mukandi offered a timely equaliser in extra time.
