On: Ella Morris and Olivia Holdt Off: Evaliina Summanen and Hanna Wijk Chelsea 1-1 Tottenham The pattern of this game is mirroring much of what we've seen of late from Chelsea. They're creating chance after chance but aren't putting them away, and it's giving Tottenham more and more confidence. Add in Hampton's error and they could well end up throwing away this cup tie which they've largely dominated. Chelsea 1-1 Tottenham Nia Jones Former Wales international on Channel 4 To her standards, Ellie Carpenter has had a really quiet game.
Something Spurs did really well was block the crosses, Carpenter has to
hit the target from there. Chelsea 1-1 Tottenham It's end to end stuff now with both teams going all out for a second goal. Ellie Carpenter should really do better with a back post header for Chelsea, before Cathinka Tandberg tests blues keeper Hannah Hampton with a potshot from the edge of the area. Chelsea 1-1 Tottenham Bizarre stuff in the Chelsea back line as Hannah Hampton comes racing out of her goal to clear a speculative long ball and gets into all sorts of bother with Kadeisha Buchanan. In the end Cathinka Tandberg gets in between them both to loft it towards the net but rolls the wrong side of the left post. Chelsea 1-1 Tottenham Sonia Bompastor is the first of the two managers to make use of their bench, bringing on Veerle Buurman for Niamh Charles at left-back.

Thankfully for the visitors Lize Kop is sharp off her line with a sprawling save. Chelsea 1-1 Tottenham Nia Jones Former Wales international on Channel 4 We said it was a beautiful sunny day, there are a couple of players on the pitch who will be fuming when they see it before kick-off and it's the goalkeeper. Hannah Hampton totally misjudges the ball in, doesn't read the flight of it at all and won't want to watch that one back. Evaliina Summanen (52 mins) We're all square! It's a goal that Chelsea keeper Hannah Hampton won't want to see again as she completely misjudges Evaliina Summanen's delivery into the middle and is left helpless as it flies right over her and into the back of the net.

Now it's just a question of being brave. Chelsea 1-0 Tottenham Kadeisha Buchanan has the ball nicked off her toes by Cathinka Tandberg and wants a free-kick.
