Tottenham have never appeared in the final of the Women's FA CupSubstitute Kit Graham scored the only goal as Tottenham edged past Championship leaders Charlton into the quarter-finals of the Women's FA Cup.
After exiting the Women's League Cup with a 1-0 loss against Manchester City on Wednesday, Spurs bounced back to ensure they are still in contention for silverware this season.
They twice hit the woodwork - through Eveliina Summanen and captain Bethany England - before breaking the deadlock with 15 minutes left.
Graham, who had only been on the field for five minutes, won the ball on the edge of the box and drove low beyond goalkeeper Jessica Gray.
The win ends a run of three matches without victory across all competitions and means Spurs reach the last eight of the competition for the first time since 2020-21.
