After a scrappy opening 20 minutes, Pedro Neto’s cross from the right wing was met by the head of Chelsea captain Enzo Fernandez, who guided the ball behind Leeds goalkeeper Lucas Perri for the opening goal of the match. With Chelsea on the front foot beyond the break, Robert Sanchez proved to be essential for the Blues, making a series of crucial stops to deny Joe Rodon and Dominic Calvert-Lewin an equaliser. Daniel Farke’s side continued pushing their opponents, but after eight minutes of additional time, could not find a response to Chelsea, who set up a meeting with Manchester City in the final as a result.
