The Women's FA Cup final at Wembley attracted a record 49,094 fans, the highest attendance in the competition.
The record for a club fixture in England is 53,000, which was achieved by Dick, Kerr Ladies in 1920.
The Football Association said this week more than 50,000 tickets had been sold.
Sue Campbell, the FA's director of women's football, said that Sunday was a special day for the game.
The atmosphere in and around the stadium has been great. When we committed to hosting the final at Wembley Stadium every season, we wanted it to be this sort of occasion.
The men's and women's finals were played on the same weekend for the first time.
The highest attendance for a women's football match in the UK is 80,203 who were at the same venue for the 2012 Olympic final between the United States and Japan.
The record attendance for a women's football game was set in March of last year when Barcelona beat Real Madrid in the quarter-finals of the European Championship.
Campbell said that days like this are just part of the journey.
The three group matches at the Women's European Championship have sold out.
There are 87,200 tickets for the Euros final.
