Chelsea beats Leeds on Fernandez goal and sets up FA Cup final meeting with Man City
LONDON: (Apr 26) Chelsea’s season might be unraveling but it will still include an appearance in the FA Cup final.
Enzo Fernandez’s 23rd-minute header secured Chelsea a 1-0 win over Leeds in the semifinals on Sunday, setting up a meeting with Manchester City in the May 16 title match back at Wembley Stadium.
Chelsea’s run in the FA Cup is salvaging a campaign that has veered off the rails after a humiliating exit from the Champions League — 8-2 on aggregate to Paris Saint-Germain in the last 16 — and five straight losses in the Premier League that marks the team’s worst run of league results in 114 years and led to the midweek dismissal of manager Liam Rosenior.
