With ten minutes remaining, Hoy got her second of the match to give Spurs the lead for the first time and just when it looked as though Tottenham would reach the final, a defensive mix-up allowed Arsenal to nick a last gasp equaliser.

Striker Sharon Wedderburn hit a shot home late into the second period of extra time, but again Arsenal came back with a late, late equaliser to take the tie to penalties.

It is never a nice way to settle a cup tie, but Tottenham's nerve held better and Jackie Wright, Sharon Wedderburn and Gill Blackmore converted their spot-kicks to take Spurs through to face Dulwich Hamlet in the final on April 14th.

Dulwich Hamlet

Centre half Lisa Amasanti kick-started the trophy win with a headed goal in six minutes from Lorraine Knight's left-wing corner.  In the 13th minute, Hannah Rushforth saw her shot saved by the Hamlet keeper, but was alert to the rebound and smashed it home to make it 2-0 to Tottenham.

Dulwich went further behind just two minutes later, when a defender knocked the ball into her own net, but the South London side recovered to get a goal back just before the half-time whistle.

The second half was a much tighter affair and there was no further score, allowing Captain Jackie Wright to lift the League Cup trophy at the end of the game.

Already 0-2 down at the break, goalkeeper Debbie Fleming was dismissed just after the re-start for a professional foul.  Goldhawk converted the penalty and then went on to ease past the ten players of Spurs to take their place in the Southern Division of the Premier League.
