Sandy Baltimore scored twice and assisted another when Chelsea women took the Treble with a 3-0 ladies FA Cup final victory against man Utd Women, ending the domestic season unbeaten.
The Sonia Bompastor side lifted their latest WSL title at Stamford Bridge last weekend and became the first side that did not lose in a 22-game League campaign.
They ended that incredible achievement on Sunday, beat the FA Cup winners last year and added another trophy to the cabinet next to the WSL and Women's League Cup.
It would always be a tight game since the two parties had the best defense in the WSL this season, and Chelsea took the lead just before the break.
It was a clumsy challenge of Celin Bizet on Erin in Cuthbert, where the shot was catching in the middle of the center of a high leg. After a short delay -and a few mind -games from Man Utd -goalkeeper Phallon Tullis -yce -Baltimore shot her place.
The blues saw it better in the second half and hit a tired man Utd late with two beautiful goals to seal their sixth FA Cup. Baltimore was again involved when she wiped in a free kick, who came up with Catarina Macario to nod home.
France International Baltimore made three targeted involvement of three of three when she gave Chelsea's ultimate goal in extra time. She took the ball away from Anna Sandberg before she was rifle from close home.
It is the first time that Chelsea has completed the Treble since the limited season 2019/20 – Bompastor has been doing this in its first season as Blues Boss – and offers a reminder why they are the most successful women's team in England.
Baltimore de Ster as Chelsea Power to Wictory
Although the victory will be Chelsea as a whole, Sandy Baltimore used the big stage to prove how and why she has been so important for the blues this season.
She was not surprised by the spirit games around the penalty. It was her free kick that macario turned home and her second goal was one of real quality.
Baltimore stood at the top of the competition dries for shots and opportunities created opportunities, as well as trying most crosses.
But in general her game was persistent, aggressive when needed and something that man utd did not deal with time and time again.
The fact that she was replaced in a group with the introductions of Guro Reiten and Johanna Rytting Kanyd shows the depth that the blues have and had a hand in Sunday's success.
Baltimore was not the stars of the summer arrivals, but perhaps one of the most important in Chelsea – and now she has three winners medals in her first season in England.
'The ideal way to end the season'
Chelsea -Manager Sonia Bompastor:
“The feelings are great. Sometimes it is difficult to describe them with words, but yes, it feels really great. Again, this season was difficult.
“If you are able to reach a treble and in the interior to be just as dominant as we have been, I think you really have to enjoy it. Again, all the honor of my players, because today they really performed well. We had a strong performance, we showed our mentality and our values ​​in this game.
“To be able to end the season in almost a perfect scenario, we won, we played in Wembley, the stadium was almost sold out and we had a strong performance, a strong result, I think against a strong opponent.
“That is almost the ideal way to end the season.
The first ten minutes we struggled a bit, I probably also think because when you play these kinds of games, a last, sold -out stadium and the atmosphere. Although I have a lot of experience in my team, you are sometimes a bit emphasized.
“It's okay to be busy, but sometimes if it's too high, you don't start the way we wanted to start. But then we were confident enough to turn things around, and I think we were a better team after the first ten minutes. We were stronger, we deserved to win and we had control over the game for almost the rest of the game.”
