Khadija Shaw's early strike helped Manchester City set up a blockbuster FA Cup semi-final clash with Chelsea, as the Women's Super League leaders defeated second-tier table-toppers Birmingham 1-0 on Monday evening. The Cityzens had never lost to lower-tier opposition in the competition and while their in-form hosts gave a good account of themselves, when Shaw broke the deadlock after just eight minutes, that record rarely looked in danger of changing.
Hannah Hampton's blushes were spared by Veerle Buurman's wonderstrike as Chelsea beat Tottenham 2-1 on Monday to reach a sixth successive FA Cup semi-final. The Blues were on track for a place in the last four after Sam Kerr's first-half header until Hampton completely misjudged Eveliina Summanen's free-kick in a rare lapse. But just as extra-time was looming, up stepped the impressive Buurman, who rolled past one defender before unleashing a brilliant strike that flew into the top corner to break Spurs hearts late on.
England could be without captain Leah Williamson next week for the huge World Cup qualifier against Spain at Wembley, after the Arsenal defender was again not involved for her club at the weekend. Williamson watched from the sidelines as the Gunners crashed out of the FA Cup, suffering a shock defeat to Brighton, and there is real doubt over whether she will be fit enough to join the Lionesses' camp this week as a result.
Lucy Bronze has insisted Chelsea are "not making excuses" as they look to rescue their season following a disappointing exit from the Women's Champions League. The veteran defender is now shifting her focus to a domestic trophy pursuit to ensure the Blues do not end the campaign empty-handed.

Who has scored the most goals for Uruguay at World Cup Finals?
Uruguay have produced a glittering array of striking talent over the years, including Luis Suarez, Diego Forlan and Edinson Cavani. However, it's Oscar Míguez, who played for La Celeste during the 1950 and 1954 tournaments, scoring eight times, who tops the nation's World Cup finals scoring charts. A more modern-day star, in the shape of Fernando Muslera, holds the no.1 spot in the all-time World Cup appearances for Uruguay though, having played 16 times during three tournaments (2010, 2014 and 2018).
