Lincoln Ladies 1 Chelsea Ladies 0
Lincoln Ladies powered into the quarter-finals of the FA Women's Cup with an heroic 1-0 victory over Super League rivals Chelsea at Sincil Bank.
A 57th minute header from England international Jess Clarke sealed a deserved victory for the injury-hit Lady Imps in new manager Rick Passmoor's first game in charge.
After the Sincil Bank pitch only just passed a pre-match inspection following bursts rain, sleet and snow, the sides produced a superb spectacle.
But it was the Lady Imps, who were able to name just three substitutes due to injuries, who deserved to progress after creating far more clear-cut chances.

“A GOOD NEWS STORY COMING OUT OF THE BANK FOR A CHANGE. MAYBE THE LANDLORDS WILL TAKE NOTE. THE INFRA-STRUCTURE TO CREATE A WINNING TEAM, THE ABILITY TO SIGN TOP CLASS PLAYERS, ETC. I WONDER WHO GETS PAID LESS, AND HAS TO WORK AS WELL, TO MAKE THEIR MONEY UP? GOOD LUCK LADY IMPS IN THE NEXT ROUND AGAINST LEEDS UNITED.”

“Lincoln should be proud to have such a sucessful football team. Its a pity we don't have a mens team of any where near such quality. Come on the Lady Imps!”

“A well deserved win! An enjoyable and entertaining game with some good football, which is something we have not been used to at Sincil Bank this season! Just a shame LCFC men were not there to learn from your performance. Well done, and good luck in the next round and the forthcoming season!”
