Manchester City captain Steph Houghton has expressed her excitement at the possibility of playing in front of a record crowd at Saturday’s Women’s FA Cup final at Wembley.
The attendance for the showpiece has grown each year since first being held at the stadium in 2015, and it is hoped last year’s figure of 45,423 will be bettered when City face West Ham this weekend.
It is understood more than 50,000 tickets have been issued, including both sales and those distributed.
