The London Blues had to force an early change when Mateo Kovacic was subbed off after sustaining an injury. Ruben Loftus-Cheek came on to replace the former in the midfield. Chelsea forward Kai Havertz was booked for a simulated dive inside the box.
However, an inspired performance from Chelsea saw them snatch victory against a toothless Palace side. Starting positively from the very first minute of the second half, Chelsea attacked relentlessly. Palace certainly invited their own problems by playing a low-block defense.
The substitute Ruben Loftus-Cheek opened the scoring for Chelsea after the hour mark. Back-to-back positive changes changed the tide for the London Blues. Mason Mount pulled off a sublime goal 15 minutes before full-time to finally put a seal on the tie. Chelsea with this victory will face Liverpool who defeated Manchester City 3-2 in the FA Cup finals in Wembley.
