A lone goal from Hakim Ziyech ensured Chelsea saw off Manchester City to qualify for the final of the FA Cup on Saturday evening.
Pep Guardiola’s side had gone into the semi final game at the Wembley Stadium with hopes of winning a quadruple.
However, that hope was dashed when Ziyech converted Timo Werner’s pass ten minutes into the second half.
The Citizens were unable to respond adequately despite dominating possession.
Perhaps City’s best chance fell to Gabriel Jesus, who flunked it over from close range.
Kepa Arrizabalaga was Chelsea’s saviour in the encounter, keeping out Rodri’s stoppage-time effort from a corner.
