Matchday Gallery: Women's team beaten by Chelsea in extra time

West Ham United women's team face Chelsea in the fourth round of the Adobe Women's FA Cup on Sunday. 

The Hammers headed to west London to take on the holders, and Rehanne Skinner has elected to give debuts to new signings Shelina Zadorsky and Katrina Gorry at Kingsmeadow. 

It's was first match for both sides since the end of December, with women's football pausing over the Christmas break. 

And after 18 minutes, Viviane Asseyi latched onto a long ball from Mackenzie Arnold to give the Hammers the lead at the break. 

On 70 minutes, substitute Mia Fishel found the net to equalise as Chelsea continued to throw bodies forward. 

With the score level after 90 minutes, extra time was required, where the Blues scored twice through Erin Cuthbert and Aggie Beever-Jones to seal their place in the fifth round.
