Five days after losing their continental crown to Real Madrid in the Champions League, Chelsea consoled themselves somewhat by qualifying for the FA Cup final on Sunday 17 April. At Wembley, the Blues beat Crystal Palace (2-0). Long laborious offensively, Thomas Tuchel’s men were able to be patient and realistic by scoring on their first two real chances by Ruben Loftus-Cheek (1-0, 65th) and Mason Mount (2-0, 75th). They will challenge, on May 14 at Wembley, Liverpool winner Saturday of the other half against Manchester City (3-2).
