Sandy Baltimore scored twice and assisted another as Chelsea Women clinched the treble with a 3-0 Women’s FA Cup final win against Man Utd Women, ending the domestic season unbeaten.
Sonia Bompastor’s side lifted their latest WSL title last weekend at Stamford Bridge, and became the first side to not lose in a 22-game league campaign.
They rounded that incredible feat off on Sunday, beating last year’s FA Cup winners and adding another trophy to the cabinet alongside the WSL and Women’s League Cup.
It was always going to be a tight game given the two sides had the best defences in the WSL this season, and Chelsea took the lead just before the break.
It was a clumsy challenge from Celin Bizet on Erin Cuthbert, catching the Scot in the midriff with a high leg. After a brief delay – and a few mind games from Man Utd goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce – Baltimore fired her spot kick in.
The Blues saw the better of the play in the second half, and hit a tired Man Utd late on with two fine goals to seal their sixth FA Cup. Baltimore was involved again as she swept in a free-kick, which Catarina Macario rose to nod home.
Baltimore scored from the penalty spot at Wembley
France international Baltimore made it three goal involvements from three when she netted Chelsea’s final goal in added time. She took the ball away from Anna Sandberg before rifling home from close range.
It is the first time Chelsea have completed the treble since the curtailed 2019/20 season – Bompastor doing so in her first season as Blues boss too – and offers a reminder of why they are England’s most successful women’s team.

Padres’ offense fueled them last season. Now, they’re searching for it
SAN DIEGO — Almost three hours before Sunday’s first pitch, Gavin Sheets patrolled left field at Petco Park, attempting to get his bearings. It had been several weeks since he made his first-ever appearance at that particular position in this particular building. Soon, he would receive his 10th career start in left. So, as he shagged fly balls ahead of a day game, the San Diego Padres’ primary designated hitter welcomed the nearby presence of Jason Heyward, a five-time Gold Glove right fielder and, thus far in 2025, the team’s primary left fielder.Advertisement“To come out there today with me and be a part of that,” Sheets said afterward, “it just shows the special player, the special teammate he is, and what he means to this team and this ballclub.”Heyward’s purported value has been as intangible as it is measurable. The […]

The Florida Panthers went into Toronto for Game 7 of their second-round playoff series and routed the Leafs, 6-1, to reach the Eastern Conference Final for the third consecutive season.When the teams played to a scoreless tie at the end of the first period, it seemed as though we were headed for an epic Game 7. Then the Panthers took a stranglehold on the game early in the second period and never looked back. Defenseman Seth Jones, who had an exceptional game, kicked off a run of three goals in 6:24 for Florida.That barrage stunned the Scotiabank Arena crowd, and Toronto had no answer on the ice.

The ‘Jokić Stopper’: How Alex Caruso and the Thunder defense snatched Game 7
OKLAHOMA CITY — As an assemblage of Thunder players anxiously huddled around head coach Mark Daigneault during an early timeout on Sunday, veteran guard Alex Caruso — holding a white towel in his hand — separated from the pack and approached the court.Daigneault had seen some worrying signs from his players — particularly in the energy department — despite the game being less than three minutes in and Denver only being up 8-4. But as the rest of the team discussed how to avoid any Game 6 mistakes, Caruso was shuffling his feet aggressively under the basket, almost like he was back at the draft combine in the shuttle run.AdvertisementThe 31-year-old, an NBA champion, had been in high-pressure moments before, so he didn’t need a reminder of his job description or what would be asked of him. So after the […]
