LEICESTER CITY Win Their First FA Cup as they beat Chelsea at Wembley
Leicester City made history at Wembley Stadium today, Saturday, May 14, by winning the 2020-21 Emirates FA Cup for the first time in their 137 year history, beating Chelsea 1-0, with Belgian Youri Tielemans scoring one of the most memorable FA Cup final goals ever seen, blasting a 25-yard screamer into the top corner of Kepa Arrizabalaga‘s net on 63 minutes.
Today saw 21,000 supporters allowed into Wembley for the first time since the start of the pandemic, and they were treated to a great spectacle of football as both teams fought hard for the win, with Leicester fans witnessing their club’s first FA Cup final since 1969, which they lost 1-0 to Manchester City, and stats showed that the Foxes had not beaten Chelsea in seven previous FA Cup fixtures.
