Liverpool caused a large shock by beating Arsenal in the quarterfinals of the FA Cup for women.
Daphne's own goal was the difference between the two parties, the ball turned off the post and back to the goalkeeper with 12 minutes to play.
The Reds dominated large parts of the game, Sophie Roman Haug went close to the break when she squeezed the ball from Domselaar, who had a difficult afternoon.
It is the first time that Liverpool has been advanced to the last four since he was eliminated at that stage at that stage in 2016-17 and marks their second consecutive victory under interim boss Amber Whiteley, who replaced Matt Beard at the end of last month.
For 14-time winners Arsenal, the Champions League remains their last realistic opportunity to win silverware this season, with Chelsea having an 11-point lead on them at the top of the Super League for women.

Elsewhere on Sunday, Chelsea reached the last four by Crystal Palace to be seen 1-0 at Kingsmeadow.
Lauren James scored the only goal of the game in the 64th minute to keep the quadruple hope of the blues alive prior to the final of next week's League Cup against Man City.
James and Aggie Beever-Jones missed other opportunities to score in a game palace to defend chased, although the result was never questioning.
In the meantime, Bunny Shaw and Jess Park did the damage for the citizens, while sealing their place in the semi-final with a 2-0 win over Aston Villa.
Villa had threatened in early stages and there was no opportunities for the counterattack before City came to life after the break.
Shaw finished Mary Fowler's by Ball before Park Vivianne Miedema's only sent to double the management.
The city stays in the FA Cup, League Cup and Champions League, but a 12-point gap for Chelsea in the WSL means that its own quadruple is very unlikely.
On Saturday, Manchester United was comfortable with 3-1 winners against Sunderland.
Leah Galton, Maya le Tissier and Ella Tone were on goal for United, who defended champions after beating Tottenham 4-0 in last season's final.
Sunderland, the only remaining side from outside the top layer, withdrew a goal in the second half through Louise Griffiths, but was largely surpassed by Marc Skinner's side.
City plays United in the semi -final in the weekend of 12 April, with Chelsea taking Liverpool on 18 May for the other place in Wembley.
