United Women discover Adobe FA Cup fourth round opponent
Burnley, who compete in the third-tier FA Women’s National League North, reached the fourth round with a one-sided 7-0 win over fourth tier Peterborough on Sunday. Claudia Walker, formerly a WSL player with Liverpool, Everton, Birmingham and West Ham, scored two of the goals.
United have faced the Clarets once before, meeting at the same stage of the FA Cup during the 2020/21 campaign. Led by Casey Stoney on that occasion, we ran out 6-0 winners at the County Ground in Leyland.
Millie Turner, Ella Toone, Lucy Staniforth, Amy Turner and Kirsty Hanson (twice) all got on the scoresheet in what was a comprehensive victory.
