CHELSEA AND LEICESTER CITY MAKE F.A.CUP HISTORY.

In the F.A cup now called the Emirates F.A.Cup, this is also the oldest cup played for in England. In the 2018 Emirates F.A .Cup quarter finals which was played between Chelsea and Leicester City o 18/3/2018. The match ended in a draw after the full 90 , ninety minutes. But according to the new rules that came into force this year, if the quarter final match did indeed end in a tame draw , then there would be no replay allowed this year. but instead both the clubs would pay another 30 thirty minutes of extra time, of each half being played for fifteen minutes only. So in this match Alvaro Morato scored the first goal for Chelsea, but that goal was wiped out with Jamie Vardi scoring the equalizer in the normal time. But the winner came in the extra time and the goal was scored by Pedro Rodriguez for Chelsea.
