City beat Brighton to seal fourth FA Cup triumph

The Jamaican put City ahead at Wembley in the FA Cup final, with the Blues going on to win 4-0 against Brighton & Hove Albion.

Victory over the Seagulls sealed a league and cup double for the first time in our history, in a week where Shaw also announced her four-year contract extension in style at Co-op Live.

There’d been plenty of speculation about the three-time WSL Golden Boot winner’s future before then, but Shaw let her football do the talking in a special 2025/26 campaign.

Speaking to TNT Sports, she said: “It’s been a crazy few weeks with a lot of emotions, from not knowing where I would be to signing a contract and now being here, winning the FA Cup.

“The last time I was here I actually lost, so I wanted to correct that today, and we actually did it.”

Greenwood: 'That's what champions do'

Shaw’s Wembley strike summed up everything she’s become known for - beating Chiamaka Nnadozie to an aerial ball to power home a header at the far post.

It was her fifth FA Cup goal of the season - level with Sam Kerr at the top of the scoring charts for WSL sides - and her 27th in all competitions.

“As the ball was coming across, she shouted ‘keeper’s’ very early, so I just thought I’m going to go for it, try not to make contact with her,” Shaw said of her goal.

“So I just focused on the ball, and then whatever happens, happens and then I turned around and saw the ball go in, so I turned around to celebrate.”
