Chelsea secure Wembley return after dramatic FA Cup win over Leicester

Chelsea secured their spot in the FA Cup semi-finals with an exciting 4-2 victory over Leicester at Stamford Bridge.

At halftime, it seemed like Mauricio Pochettino’s team would have an easy win, with goals from Marc Cucurella and Cole Palmer giving them control, despite Raheem Sterling missing a penalty.

But in the second half, a strange own goal from Axel Disasi gave Leicester hope, and Stephy Mavididi scored a fantastic goal to equalize for the Championship side.

With 20 minutes left, Chelsea got a penalty when Nicolas Jackson was fouled, but after a VAR review, it was overturned because the foul happened outside the box. However, Leicester’s Callum Doyle received a red card for the challenge.

As the game went into stoppage time, Chelsea fans became increasingly anxious, but Carney Chukwuemeka’s well-executed goal, assisted by Palmer, eased the tension.

Leicester’s chances were slim, but Noni Madueke scored a brilliant goal in the final moments, securing a win for Chelsea and a trip to Wembley next month.
