Arsenal booked their place in the FA Women's Cup Final at
the City Ground on May 7 with a hard fought 2-0 win over Bristol
Academy.
First half goals from Katie Chapman and Jayne Ludlow keep the
north London side on track for a clean sweep of silverware this
season.
With the League Cup already won, Arsenal are looking forward to
an FA Women's Cup final against rivals Charlton Athletic, a
UEFA Cup final against Swedish side Umea IK as well as defending
their league title for the third year running.
Arsenal midfielder Carney refused to get carried away and says
they will celebrate only when they have completed the quadruple.
She told www.thefa.com:
"There was a sense of relief rather than celebration
afterwards in the changing room because it wasn't the best of
performances.
"We will celebrate when we have won the cup and I think
that is the right attitude to have.
"It would be absolutely amazing if we could win everything
this season. We want to win every game we play in.
"We want to get to as many finals as we can and hopefully
win them. I have never played in a Cup final before so I am really
looking forward to it.
"The games are coming round thick and fast at the moment.
Because we have been doing so well in the cups and all the
internationals as well it is a really busy time at the moment.
"If I continue to get selected for England it will be a
very busy year, but that is what it is all about. I will accept
being busy if it means I can play in the World Cup
Finals."
