West Ham Women captain Gilly Flaherty has said that the occasion of reaching an FA Cup final is more than enough for her side to be proud of, despite falling to a 3-0 defeat to Manchester City.
The Hammers have managed to comfortably avoid relegation in their first season as a professional Women's Super League side, and had the chance to put the icing on the cake with a major trophy last weekend.
Coming up against a strong City side who had yet to lose domestically, however, they were beaten by a flurry of second half goals from Keira Walsh, Georgia Stanway and Lauren Hemp, but can nonetheless take pride in their accomplishments.
