FA Cup draw: Leeds to face Chelsea in first semi-final for 39 years

Leeds United will face Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-finals following Sunday’s draw.

The Whites will feature in the FA Cup semi-finals for the first time in 39 years after beating West Ham on penalties in a thrilling quarter-final tie.

Leeds led 2-0 heading into stoppage time, but survived a West Ham fightback to eventually prevail on penalties. West Ham forced extra time after scoring twice in stoppage time and had two further goals disallowed in the added period for offside.


Daniel Farke’s side will now face Chelsea at Wembley later this month. The other tie will see Manchester City face Southampton. The latter upset Premier League leaders Arsenal in the quarter-finals and are the only Football League team left in the competition.

The FA Cup semi-final ties will be played over the weekend of April 25th and 26th.
