Player Ratings: Chelsea 4-2 Leicester Electric Jackson and ice-cold Palmer shine

Carney Chukwuemeka and Noni Madueke, who were substitutes, scored late goals to help Chelsea win 4-2 against Leicester, which had only 10 players. This win put Chelsea in the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

Chelsea seemed to be heading for an easy win after Marc Cucurella scored the first goal and Cole Palmer added a second. But then, Raheem Sterling missed a penalty in the first half and Axel Disasi accidentally scored a goal for Leicester.

Leicester managed to equalize the score thanks to a great goal by Stephy Mavididi. However, they were reduced to 10 men when Callum Doyle was sent off. Despite this, Chelsea won the match in the extra time with two amazing goals from Chukwuemeka and Madueke.
