Manchester United reached the Women's FA Cup semi-finals for the first time after beating Championship side Lewes.
United took an early lead through a Rhian Cleverly own goal before Vilde Boe Risa doubled their advantage after the break.
Lewes kept pushing and Emily Kraft pulled a goal back with a fine lifted finish over United keeper Mary Earps.
But the visitors sealed their progress late on when substitute Nikita Parris prodded home a third.
It had looked as if United might run away with it when Lewes defender Cleverly tucked an Alessia Russo effort past her own goalkeeper after only eight minutes.
But the hosts kept up a high work-rate and came close to an equaliser, with Natalie Johnson's close-range effort blocked by a last-ditch Maria Thorisdottir tackle.
The Women's Super League side asserted themselves after the break, with Martha Thomas twice denied by Lewes keeper Sophie Whitehouse, before Boe Risa nodded home a pinpoint Ona Batlle delivery to double United's lead.
Kraft took advantage of a poor Earps clearance in the 73rd minute to lift the ball over the England shot-stopper and give the hosts a glimmer of hope.
But United put the game to bed in the 89th minute, when Parris charged through the Lewes defence before poking an effort into the far corner from a tight angle.
United have been much improved under Marc Skinner this season and are in contention for silverware in both the WSL and the FA Cup.
Skinner will be hoping to guide the Red Devils to their first major trophy and they took a step closer with their victory at the Dripping Pan.
United are currently two points behind Chelsea in the league having played a game more, so the cup could offer their best chance of success this season.
And Sunday's display will have provided some belief as they worked hard to overcome well-organised opponents.
Battle was one of United's brightest attacking sparks with her runs down the right and the Spaniard, who turned provider for two of the goals, could be crucial if they are to realise their trophy ambitions.
But this performance did display some areas for concern. The absence of winger Leah Galton from Skinner's side left them lacking impetus in the final third at times, while Russo was also regularly left isolated up front.
The Red Devils may still be a work in progress but reaching the FA Cup last four for the first time in their history is an important milestone for the club nevertheless.
