Chelsea boss Emma Hayes says scheduling of Women's FA Cup final 'could have been done better'

The FA Cup final is a celebration of women's football, but the scheduling of the match could have been better.

The quarter-finals of the 2020-21 competition were delayed because of the coronaviruses, but the Wembley clash is the final one.

The Football Association banned women's football for half a century on Sunday 100 years ago. The final will be 50 years old.

After an international break, it is followed by a game between Reading and the Women's Super League three days later.

The FA Cup final is expected to be decided by small margins.

The FA want to fit it on an important weekend. I understand.

We have three games in six days, on the back of them coming back from an international break. I think you could have done better.

It's here. I don't want the focus to be on that. The women's game needs to be explained. We need to promote it, celebrate it and acknowledge everyone around it.

Sam Kerr played against the United States in Australia.

She can't train and we have to get her fresh. Sam is a top professional and we have recovery plans for him.

She said that she feels better than she did last time. She'll give her best, even if it's not the best thing for them. Sam Kerr will be ready to go on Sunday.

In the opening game of the Women's Super League, the Blues lost to the Gunners.

Pernille Harder and Aniek Nouwen are fit to be involved.

The WSL champion will face a team who are currently at the top of the table.

In their first WSL fixture of the season, the Blues were beaten by the Gunners in a game that they will complete with victory on Sunday.

"I think that game is over a long time ago," he said. I look at the evolution of our team and we've got better in every area, not because we were poor, but because we'd been together less than eight sessions.

The FA Cup final should serve as a reminder that the game won't be banned again and is only going to grow and get better, according to the coach who guided the club to FA Cup glory in 2015 and then in 2018).

She was asked what she wanted to see from the competition.

She said that more prize money was needed for everyone. We need more money to trickle down. I don't think it's close to what the men's game is.

"If we want to invest in our game further down, we need that money, as well as, I think, continuing to provide more opportunities at grassroots level, because girls don't", said Hayes. I see that in the lack of diversity in our game.

There are a lot of girls who are not going to get on trains or buses to go to other places. We need more inner-city funded projects and to come up with better ways to help girls and women, not just the ones that are already there.

I feel like we have to get it right in order to go further in our game. We need to have more people in our game.

The progress has been made since the win.

The club has won the FA Cup a record 14 times.

The Women's FA Cup final is on Sunday and the boss believes his team has developed since defeating them earlier in the season.

The prospect of this weekend's Wembley clash between the sides is exciting, as Eidevall feels that Chelsea have developed since that encounter.

Since beating the reigning champions at the Emirates Stadium in September, the north London club have won six and drawn the other of the league games that followed, and are currently a point clear of the other team at the top of the table.

When we look back at where we were before that game and during that game, I think we have 888-405-7720 888-405-7720

I think we have developed in both defence and offence. I'm looking forward to the game.

"I feel very confident at game day," he said. I need to prepare for everything that can go wrong, so before the game I think about what could go wrong.

I have to do everything, rewatch all the videos one, two, and three times again, and then we start working with it in the group and so on, because I am certain that we are going to lose the game. I know I will reach that point again.
