Chelsea FA Cup Semi-Final

In a thrilling FA Cup quarterfinal match, Chelsea secured their place in the semi-finals with a dramatic 4-2 win over Leicester City. Marc Cucurella, Cole Palmer, Carney Chukwuemeka, and Noni Madueke powered Chelsea’s offensive surge, while Leicester’s spirited comeback – fueled by Stephy Mavididi and an own goal – fell short in the final moments.

Chelsea struck early with Cucurella’s goal in the 13th minute, and Palmer doubled their lead just before halftime. Leicester rallied after the break, with an own goal by Chelsea’s Axel Disasi and Mavididi’s equalizer bringing the score to a nerve-wracking 2-2.

The match hung in the balance until injury time, when Chukwuemeka and Madueke delivered decisive goals for Chelsea, sealing their hard-fought 4-2 victory and their place in the FA Cup semi-finals.
