Frank Lampard’s Chelsea outplayed Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s Manchester United to set up an all London FA Cup Final.
The blues played some brilliant Football at the Wembley Stadium that saw them go past the red devils in the 2nd Semi Final of the Emirates FA Cup.
Frank Lampard’s switch to a back 3 did work out and the men from the Stanford Bridge crushed United with a 3-1 victory, helped by two glaring errors from goalkeeper David de Gea and an own goal by skipper Harry Maguire. Chelsea ended United’s 19 game unbeaten run.
Chelsea broke the deadlock in the 11th minute of added time in the first half with French Target Man Olivier Giroud finding the back of the net against the Spain International. Chelsea scored their 2nd goal when the young man Mason Mount took the full advantage of De Gea’s mistake.
