Chelsea 2-0 Crystal Palace: Antonio Rudiger tried to do a Luka Modric
Chelsea are through to the 2021/22 FA Cup final.
Thomas Tuchel’s side booked another date at Wembley Stadium on Sunday afternoon with a 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace.
Second half goals from Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Mason Mount were enough for a semi-final victory in the London sunshine.
Chelsea will take on Liverpool in the FA Cup final, which is a repeat of the League Cup final earlier in the year.
The Blues will be out for revenge after losing that match on penalties.
Chelsea were certainly deserving of victory in their semi-final versus Palace. They had 66% of the possession and created far more chances.
Overall, it was a very solid performance by the current European champions.
There was also a moment during the game in which Antonio Rudiger lived up to his reputation as one of the world’s most entertaining defenders.
The German centre-back is renowned for dribbling forward like a bit of a maniac and attempting shots from distance.
And it seems Rudiger also backs himself to pass the ball like the best in the business.
Against Palace, the former AS Roma man tried to pull off a Luka Modric-esque pass with the outside of his boot.
It didn’t go to plan, though…
Rudiger qui a voulue faire comme modric
