View on Wikipedia
The 1991–92 WFA National League Cup was a football competition in England organised by the Women's Football Association (WFA). It was the first edition[1][2] of the Women's National League Cup, now run by the Football Association (renamed the Women's Premier League Cup from 1994 to 2018).
Key Information
The Cup included top-flight clubs from the 1991–92 WFA National League Premier Division but was won by a second-tier club, Arsenal, from the Southern Division.[3][4]
Arsenal became the first English women's League Cup winners, the team's first major trophy.[3] The final was held at Alt Park, Knowsley, on 24 May 1992.[1] Arsenal defeated Millwall Lionesses 1–0, with a 28th-minute goal by Naz Ball.[5]
