Manchester City Defeats Chelsea 1-0 in FA Cup Semifinal
City Advances to Final With Silva's Late Goal
Manchester City secured their place in the FA Cup final with a narrow 1-0 victory over Chelsea at Wembley Stadium.
The match was a tense affair, with both teams creating chances but failing to find the back of the net during the first half. City eventually broke the deadlock in the 70th minute through Bernardo Silva, who curled a beautiful shot into the top corner.
Chelsea pushed for an equalizer in the remaining minutes, but City's defense held firm to secure the win. The result means City have kept their hopes of a domestic double alive, having already won the Premier League title this season.
After the match, City manager Pep Guardiola praised his team's performance, saying, "We played a great game and deserved to win. We controlled the match and created the better chances. We're delighted to be in the final."
Chelsea manager Graham Potter was disappointed with the result but praised his team's effort, saying, "We gave it our all but it wasn't enough today. City are a great team and they showed their quality today. We'll learn from this and come back stronger next season."
City will now face either Arsenal or Newcastle United in the FA Cup final on June 1.
