Chelsea Women claimed a third consecutive FA Cup as they took a 1-0 win over Manchester United in the final. Seattle teams found themselves on opposite sides of that same scoreline on Saturday, as OL Reign lost to NC Courage and the Seattle Sounders came out on the other side of a weather delay and took home a win from Houston thanks to a goal from Paul Rothrock. Chelsea’s men’s side seem to have made Mauricio Pochettino the man to take them into the future, having done so successfully with Tottenham and PSG, and Liverpool look like they have their Julian Ward replacement for the time being at least.
