Eniola Aluko 'relieved' by FA Cup win

Chelsea striker Eniola Aluko has expressed her delight after helping the club to win the FA Cup final this afternoon.

The Blues lifted the trophy for the first time in their history following a 1-0 victory over Notts County at Wembley.

"The overwhelming emotion right now is just relief," Aluko told BBC Sport. "It has been a long time coming.

"After coming so close last season (to the WSL 1 title) everyone has talked about it, will Chelsea do it? How will we play under pressure? But we certainly played under pressure.

"We were disciplined and got the win. This is history in the making I couldn't be more proud of this group of players."

Today's match was the first Women's FA Cup final to be held at Wembley.
