Manchester City win FA Cup final after beating Chelsea at Wembley
Antoine Semenyo’s 72nd-minute back-heel gave City their eighth FA Cup title and kept Pep Guardiola’s team in the hunt for a domestic treble.
- At Wembley Stadium, Manchester City defeated Chelsea 1-0 in the 145th FA Cup final, with forward Antoine Semenyo scoring the decisive goal in the second half for manager Pep Guardiola's team.
- In the 72nd minute, Semenyo broke the deadlock with a brilliant finish after latching onto a pass from forward Erling Haaland, diverting the ball across goalkeeper Robert Sanchez into the corner.
