Arsenal came from behind to beat Chelsea 3-1 in the FA Women’s Continental League Cup Final at a sold-out Selhurst Park.
Chelsea took only 99 seconds to take the lead, Sam Kerr heading in a Guro Reiten cross via the underside of the crossbar.
Arsenal were back on level terms on 16 minutes, Stina Blackstenius with the finish after a Frida Maanum effort deflected to her.
With a quarter of the game played, the Gunners had turned it round, Katie McCabe caught by Sophie Ingle in the area and Kim Little converting the resultant penalty.
Blackstenius had a goal ruled out for offside but with the last play of the half, Rafaelle met a corner and her header went in off the Blues’ Niamh Charles to complete the scoring at 3-1 to the Gunners.
