Chelsea did not let the noise of a change of manager affect the semi-final of the FA Cup on Sunday. Enzo Fernandez finished with the only goal of the match in the opening half and scrapped Leeds United fans’ decades-long cup final dream.
– This is by far the best day of my career, interim manager Calum McFarlane rejoiced according to the BBC.
– Tactics sometimes flew out the window, but the team’s character, fight and special situations were exceptional.
Wembley is a bad place for Leeds. Sunday was the fourth consecutive loss with a reset, said Optajoe, who specializes in statistics, on his X account.
– It was a tight match in which they managed to score, Leeds manager Daniel Farke crystallized.
– This is a tough place, but despite everything, I am proud of our cup season.
Leeds United’s only FA Cup win is 54 years old – and the most recent final visit a year younger.
Record streak
Chelsea will meet Manchester City, who confirmed their right to the final by reversing Southampton’s lead on Saturday Jeremy Dokun and by Nico Gonzalez with the hits of the last ten.
City is the first club in the FA Cup’s 145-year history to reach four consecutive finals.
– I think as a team we still don’t even understand what we are doing, Doku commented on his club’s website.
– The fourth time in a row is incredible.
The final will be played on May 16. As usual, the stage is Wembley.
Southampton’s management didn’t bother Manchester City’s stars. PDO
