Tottenham Women's secret to FA Cup success as they look to complete comeback trilogy

Tottenham Hotspur Women's secret to their FA Cup success might just lie in the tranquillity of yoga, as manager Robert Vilahamn credits the practice for their remarkable resilience.

Spurs have shown a knack for dramatic comebacks on their journey to the Women's FA Cup final against Manchester United at Wembley Stadium, overturning deficits against Sheffield United, Manchester City in a nail-biting quarter-final penalty shootout, and Leicester City, with Martha Thomas' extra-time header sealing their spot in the final.

Vilahamn highlighted the mental fortitude of his squad ahead of the big game on Sunday. He said: «I think you can see a strength in the character of the players, but also part of the environment that we want to create.

»One of the four key words in our environment is to be present and handle set-backs, so when you look at those games where we go down to Sheffield United, down to Manchester City, down to Leicester, it shows the character of being present and being able to remain focussed and turn the game around. Not by luck but by playing good football and keeping to the plan.

«That's why we do yoga, so we can work on ensuring our minds and bodies can handle it. So it's proof that it works in one way but you also have good footballers and good people on the bench who can use their energy. We have good strength in the squad.»

«I'm the first one participating in yoga. I'm loving it the most. When I was introduced to it years ago, it helped me to stay calm, to make sure that I can help the team stay calm.», reports the Mirror.
