FA CUP: Chelsea Cruise past 10-man Manchester United

An unlikely lone goal from Chelsea midfielder, N’Golo Kante was enough to see the current Premier League leaders through to the Semi-finals of the prestigious English FA Cup.

Former Chelsea star, Frank Lampard insists Kante is the ‘driving force’ in the current Chelsea side and believes he deserves to be recognised as the best central midfielder in the world on current form.
‘I’d say Kante is the best central midfielder in world football, I really would,’ Chelsea icon Lampard said.
It was a night Manchester United saw “red” as their mercurial midfielder Ander Herrera was sent off in the first half. Jose Mourinho also had to endure extensive abuse from the home fans. He reacted by putting 3 fingers up, probably an indication of the number of Premier League titles he won for the club as manager.


With this result, Chelsea is set to face Tottenham Hotspurs in April at Wembley in the semi-finals. It’s the same weekend Arsenal will have to put up a good show against Manchester City as well.
