Ziyech's Goal Sends Chelsea to FA Cup Final, Ends Manchester City's Quadruple Hopes
Blues Advance After Tense Semi-Final Encounter
Hakim Ziyech's second-half strike proved to be the difference as Chelsea booked their place in the FA Cup final with a 1-0 victory over Manchester City at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.
The match was a closely contested affair, with both sides creating chances throughout. However, it was Chelsea who took the lead in the 55th minute when Ziyech latched onto a pass from Mason Mount and fired a low shot into the bottom corner.
Manchester City pushed for an equalizer, but they were unable to find a way past Chelsea's resolute defense. The Blues held on for the win, securing their place in the final where they will face either Liverpool or Manchester United.
The victory was a major boost for Chelsea, who have endured a difficult season. It also ended Manchester City's hopes of winning a quadruple this season. The Citizens are still in contention for the Premier League title, but they have been eliminated from both the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup.
Ziyech's goal was his first in the FA Cup this season, and it proved to be a vital one for Chelsea. The Moroccan winger has been in good form recently, and he will be hoping to continue his run of good form in the final.
Chelsea will be looking to win their first FA Cup since 2018 when they face either Liverpool or Manchester United in the final. It will be a tough test, but the Blues will be confident of their chances after their victory over Manchester City.
