Chelsea secured their place in the 2026 FA Cup Final with a 1-0 victory over Leeds United at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, 26 April 2026, booking the all-Premier League final against Manchester City that had been confirmed the previous day. The single goal proved sufficient for Chelsea in a match where their greater Premier League experience and quality proved decisive against a Leeds side who had been one of the FA Cup’s most entertaining stories, including their dramatic penalty shootout victory over West Ham at the London Stadium in the quarter-finals after the match had gone to extra time following a remarkable 2-2 comeback from 2-0 up.
Chelsea’s journey to the 2026 FA Cup Final had included a stunning 7-0 demolition of League One Port Vale in the quarter-finals. The result against Leeds gave the west London club a final appearance that represented one of the few positive outcomes in an otherwise extremely difficult 2025-26 Premier League season, during which they went five consecutive league games without scoring — last seen in 1912 — and where coach Liam Rosenior was eventually sacked following a run of poor results.
Leeds’s FA Cup campaign has been an extraordinary achievement for a club simultaneously fighting for Premier League survival, reaching their first FA Cup semi-final in 39 years under Michael Carrick’s management. The 1-0 defeat to Chelsea ended a remarkable FA Cup story. Watch highlights on AllSportsZone.
