Girma's Last Gasp Stunner Sinks Man Utd in FA Cup Thriller!

Wamma! What a finish! Naomi Girma came through like a superhero in the 99th minute to send Chelsea through to the Women's FA Cup quarters with a 2-1 win over Manchester United.

Simi Awujo thought she'd saved Man Utd with a late equalizer, but Girma had other plans. She popped up like your ex at 2am to break United hearts at Kingsmeadow.

Sonia Bompastor looked happier than a Ugandan finding rolex at midnight, saying: "This competition is really special for us."

Meanwhile, Man Utd players are probably drowning their sorrows somewhere, wondering how they let this one slip. The Red Devils were cooking for most of the game, but Chelsea's experience showed when it mattered most.

Next up for Chelsea? Probably more drama, more late winners, and more WAGs posting cryptic Instagram stories about the victory. That's how we like it!
