Leicester City has crowned the FA Cup champions for the first time in their history. They won the fixture 1-0 against Chelsea at Wembley Stadium in a very interesting game.
Youri Tielemans scored an extraordinary goal from outside the box that helped the foxes in clinching their maiden title. Kepa did a full diving effort but couldn’t save that thundering shot. He was awarded the man of the match award for his deciding goal.
Kasper Schmeichel saved some important shots toward the end of the game from Mason Mount. Chilwell equalized in the dying minutes of the game but he was declared offside and the goal was disallowed. The match was full of suspense and excitement.

Chelsea was the better side in the first half but Brenden Roger’s side was eventually the champion. Leicester fans were on top of their voices as 21,000 fans were allowed in the stadium after a long time.
Leicester won their first major trophy since their miraculous premier league’s victory back in 2015. Chelsea on the other hand is set to play the UEFA Champions League final against Manchester City later this month.
