Ladies Face Barnet In Semis

Everton Ladies will face FA Premier League Southern Division leaders Barnet in the semi-finals of the FA Women's Cup.

Everton Ladies will face FA Premier League Southern Division leaders Barnet in the semi-finals of the FA Women's Cup.

The tie will take place at Southport FC this Sunday 14 March after the Bees booked their place in the final four for the first time by overcoming Nottingham Forest 3-2 last weekend.

In the other semi-final, the current holders Arsenal face London rivals Chelsea at Staines Town FC on Sunday April 4.

The Blues' domestic programme was halted as the majority of Mo Marley's team went away on international duty. But the Toffees reunited to beat Watford 4-0 in the Women's Premier League on Sunday. 

Goals from Natasha Dowie, Jill Scott and a brace from Gwen Harries secured three points for Everton, which now sees them sit in sixth position in the Premier League table, ten points off leaders Sunderland with 13 games still left to play.

Everton do, however, have the small matter of seven games in hand over the North East side - while champions Arsenal lie second and Premier League Cup winners Leeds third, with 12 and 11 fixtures to play respectively.
