Chelsea on Saturday defeated Manchester City 1-0 to reach the FA Cup final.

Hakim Ziyech was Chelsea‘s hero after he scored the only goal of the match on 56 minutes.

It was almost a repeat of the goal Chelsea had ruled out earlier but this time Timo Werner stayed onside before breaking into the box and squaring for Hakim Ziyech to sweep home.
