Women’s FA Cup final: What has been said?

After winning the FA Cup last year, Chelsea manager Hayes piled the praise onto her players. 

She said: “Those women will go down in history. I’ll look back in 10 years’ time and I’ll say ‘that group was immense, the best team I’ve ever coached’. 

“I totally understand the want to talk about perfection in football but having been on the winning side more often than not, let me tell you it’s about human endeavour. We have a group of people that don’t like to be on a losing team and they’ll find a way [to win].

“I’ve been involved with lots of football matches, nothing was as enjoyable as that today… I understand that I’m a leader and I’ve got an amazing staff, but these players are extraordinary, they really are.”
