FA Cup: Man City beat Chelsea to qualify for final

Manchester City on Saturday, defeated Chelsea 1-0 in the FA Cup semi-final.

Bernardo Silva scored the only goal of the match late in the game, to keep City’s dreams of winning the Double alive.

Pep Guardiola’s side, who were without the injured Erling Haaland, struggled for rhythm for much of the game.

Chelsea were the team on the front foot at Wembley and in the end, they were made to pay for a host of missed chances.

Nicolas Jackson was the main culprit as he was denied twice in quick succession by goalkeeper Stefan Ortega early in the second half.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side were also denied a penalty when Cole Palmer’s free-kick struck the hand of Jack Grealish. Referee Michael Oliver waved away the appeals before VAR stuck with the on-field decision, much to the bemusement of Pochettino and his players.
