ARSENAL Ladies reached the semi-finals of the FA Women’s Super League Continental Cup on Sunday with a 3-0 victory over Chelsea at Meadow Park, writes Steve Barnett.

Jordan Nobbs opened the scoring on 14 minutes when she curled the ball into the top corner from 25 yards.

Kim Little doubled the advantage just before the hour mark when she coolly converted from the penalty spot.

Jennifer Beattie (pictured) wrapped up the win over the Blues with a late header.

Manager Laura Harvey told Arsenal.com, “We are pleased with the result and it was another clean sheet.
“I didn’t think we played that well in the first half but we kept the ball better in the second half and I am pleased with the 3-0 victory.”
