Kelly Smith's hat-trick was the highlight as Arsenal beat Doncaster 5-0 in Scunthorpe on Thursday to win the FA Women's Premier League Cup.The Gunners' triumph at Glanford Park marked the seventh time they have lifted the trophy.
Alex Scott was also on target - making it a perfect send-off for the pair in their last domestic final with the club before they head off to America to join Boston Breakers.
Smith gave the Gunners the lead after only five minutes, tapping in a Kim Little shot - and the same duo combined for Smith to double the lead with a classy finish in the 32nd minute.
She completed her hat-trick in the 58th minute with a stunning 25-yard effort and the game was effectively ended as a contest when Scott found herself in acres of space on the right flank and lifted a cool finish over advancing Belles goalkeeper Nicola Hobbs.
Substitute Susanne Grant sealed a convincing victory a minute from time.
