  • Leicester City Beat Chelsea to Claim 'Historic' First FA
    Established 1961 15 Sports Monday, May 17, 2021 Leicester City beat Chelsea to claim ‘historic’ first FA Cup LONDON: Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers hailed the “historical achievement” of his side in beating Chelsea 1-0 on Saturday to lift the FA Cup for the first time in the club’s 137-year history. Youri Tielemans’s sensational winner was witnessed by 22,000 fans at Wembley. The largest crowd for a sports event in England since the coronavirus pan- demic hit 14 months ago were treated to a goal wor- thy to win any trophy as the Belgian midfielder blast- ed into the top corner on 63 minutes. Five years after the Foxes stunned the Premier League’s giants to become champions, Leicester have now claimed English football’s other prestigious trophy at the fifth time of asking. Four times they had previously lost the final, but the last of those was 52 years ago. “It’s a historical day for the football club,” said Rodgers. “Winning the FA Cup for the first time. I’m so happy for the players and supporters. They’ve lost four finals and now a fifth time we’ve managed to do it for them.” A historic week for Rodgers’s men could get even better as they are on the verge of sealing a place in next season’s Champions League. The sides meet again in three days’ time at Stamford Bridge in a pivotal clash to decide who secures a top-four finish in the Premier League. And Rodgers suggested his side were the neu- trals favorites as they aim to upset the applecart of the Premier League’s ‘big six’ once more.
