The Addicks’ fifth-round fixture went into extra time. Ashley Hodson’s solo effort sent her side into the quarter-finals of the competition.

The Addicks’ last Championship match ended in another narrow 1-0 defeat after a first-half strike from Sheffield United’s Georgia Walters’ sealed all three points for the home side.
