      Chelsea overcome Leicester City

      Chelsea beat Leicester City, 4-2, on Sunday, in a match relating to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

      The opening goal was scored by Marc Cucurella after 13 minutes, with a left-foot shot. Jakub Stolarczyk kept his goal safe by saving the penalty in the 26th minute, taken by Raheem Sterling. After 45 minutes, Chelsea extended their lead with a goal from Cole Palmer with a left-foot strike inside the penalty box.

In the 62nd minute, Stephy Mavididi fired home Leicester City second goal, with a right-foot shot inside the penalty area. With 73 minutes on the clock, Callum Doyle left the game early after seeing a red card. In the final minutes of the game, Carney Chukwuemeka struck for Mauricio Pochettino's team, with a right-foot strike. Deep into added time, Noni Madueke netted the final goal of the game, with a left-foot strike from outside the penalty box.
