Chelsea beat Leicester with six goals in the FA Cup match and advanced to the semifinals

In the quarter-final match of the FA Cup, Chelsea hosted the Championship leader Leicester on their home ground.

The hosts got off to a great start in this match and took the lead as early as the 13th minute when Mark Cucurella scored with a precise shot. Midway through the first half, the "Blues" had the opportunity to double their lead, but Sterling poorly executed a penalty and failed to beat the goalkeeper. However, Pochettino's charges managed to equalize just before halftime when Cole Palmer scored from Raheem's pass.

At the beginning of the second half, the guests managed to quickly equalize. First, Disasi scored an own goal in a bizarre fashion, and then Mavididi restored parity. Chelsea managed to avoid extra time in injury time. Substitutes Chukwuemeka and Madueke brought victory to the "Blues."
