Chelsea booked their place in the FA Cup final after a narrow 1-0 victory over Leeds United at Wembley, with Enzo Fernandez scoring the decisive goal.
The Argentine midfielder headed home in the first half, converting a cross from Pedro Neto to seal the win and send the Blues through to face Manchester City in the final.
The result came amid a turbulent period for Chelsea, who had recently sacked manager Liam Rosenior following a poor run of form.
Under interim boss Calum McFarlane, the team showed renewed discipline and composure, dominating early proceedings before holding firm against Leeds’ second-half pressure, with goalkeeper Robert Sanchez making key saves.
Despite Leeds’ improved display after the break, they were unable to find an equaliser, as Chelsea defended resolutely to secure the win.
The victory sets up a high-profile final against Manchester City on May 16, giving Chelsea a chance to end their recent struggles and compete for a major domestic trophy.
