Manchester City Women 1-0 Liverpool Ladies

Melissa Lawley fired in from 20 yards to book Manchester City Women's spot in the FA Cup final

Manchester City Women kept alive their hopes of winning five trophies in the space of nine months by beating Liverpool to reach their first FA Cup final at Wembley.

Melissa Lawley scored the winner against two-time runners-up Liverpool.

City will meet Birmingham City in the final on Saturday, 13 May.

The Women's Super League and Continental Cup holders are also in the Champions League semi-finals and start the Spring Series later in April.

Manchester City Women, who have never appeared at England's national stadium, could have been more convincing winners against the Reds.

Jill Scott and World Player of the Year Carli Lloyd were both guilty of missing good opportunities, while Lloyd almost scored a fine solo effort with the game's final attack.

City are now aiming to become the first team to hold all three major domestic club honours at the same time since Arsenal in 2011.

Nick Cushing's side also face French side Lyon over two legs in a Champions League semi-final on 22 and 29 April.
