Arsenal lifted the first trophy of the domestic women’s season after a first-half fightback downed Chelsea 3-1 in the Conti Cup final.
In an open, pulsating clash, it was the Gunners who got their hands on silverware - for the first time in the Jonas Eidevall era - after a brave comeback. Goals from Stina Blackstenius and Kim Little and an own-goal proved the difference in arguably the best final in the tournament's history.
In a breathtaking start, star striker Sam Kerr powered Chelsea into the lead from close-range less than two minutes in. But Arsenal showed their mettle with a fightback led by Blackstenuis' 16th-minute equaliser.
