Arsenal and Chelsea Reach FA Cup Final

Three years ago, they were the ones who played in the tournament final.

Arsenal and Chelsea will meet in this season's FA Cup final.

Arsenal won yesterday's match against Manchester City (2-0) thanks to a brace from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Today, Chelsea thrashed Manchester United (3-1). Goals were scored by Olivier Giroud and Mason Mount, and Manchester United defender Harry Maguire also scored an own goal. Manchester United managed to respond only with a goal from Bruno Fernandes late in the match.

Arsenal and Chelsea have previously met in the FA Cup final. The last time this happened was in 2017, when the Gunners beat the Blues on penalties.

Chelsea became the FA Cup holders the following year, beating Manchester United in the final.

Arsenal — the record holders for FA Cup wins. In total, the Gunners have 13 tournament wins, while Chelsea have won the English cup eight times.

Winning the FA Cup guarantees a team a place in the Europa League group stage. Chelsea are currently competing for a Champions League spot, sitting third with two league matches remaining. Arsenal, meanwhile, are outside the European places in 10th.

The FA Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea will take place on 1 August at Wembley Stadium.
