Congratulations to Arsenal -the gunners- the are the champions of the FA cup, Chelsea to the lead early but the indispensable aubermeyang arsenal would keep him at the Emirates at all costs, he took a penalty an converted it to draw arsenal level with Chelsea and he in the second half gave the team from North London the win, congrats to ARSENAL, this would be big for Mikel's arteter carrier.

Arsenal was really solid today as Chelsea barely had any scoring chances but if felt bad for Arsenal fans that they found this great shape only in the last games of the EPL but I guess they will be happy with FA Cup and holding the record for all time winners. It was a great season in England, can't wait for the new one.

^  Arsenal got a lot of players injured tho.  So it's not really a good test on who the better manager is.  It needs time and a long line of results to know imho.
Anyway, got some action on Chelsea double chance and both team to score at  1.99.
Arteta sides are fully prepared despite the fact that most players are injured, its just a matter of planning, determination and team work to have at least a trophy this season. Arsenal looses their normal fourth place position for the last three seasons will eventuality give players a good sense of humor at today's final with the blues, I expect Gunners to do with do wonders today scoring +2 goals.

The FA Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea will hodl on Saturday, 1st of August, 2020.
It is a match that gives lampard a shot at glory, and an opportunity to win the facup as a player and a coach, especially in His first year at Chelsea, while Arteta will be counting on the gunners to win the title and send them straight to the europa league, first chance at silverware for both managers, its gonna be one match to look out for.

Exactly, today is the day both managers prove how good they are as a manager.  Both teams have equal chances of winning the trophy today. Arsenal and Chelsea have a long history regarding FA cup finals, and considering the facts, Arsenal seems to have a good advantage of winning today.  The match  might  produce about 3+ goals.

one can expect good match this afternoon, last match of this season, and two teams from London
Arsenal would seek Europe through this match and Chelsea already secured Champions league, but for both teams trophy is really important

Chelsea quote is good, above 2.0, but i will play on goals, under2.5, which is almost the same quote, and IMO much safer turnout, will see

@amprere if Chelsea win this fixture then it’ll be a dream ending for Lampard, who has successfully brought Chelsea to the finals without buying a single player this season, but then again nothing is guaranteed in football. Also Arsenal will be more motivated to win this final, because it’s the only way they’ll be able to play in Europa League next season, and earn that extra income that comes with playing in the Europa League.

Two big matches in the fa cup this weekend, all of these teams are not taking the fa cup for granted, they need this trophy to shape up their season. Arsenal vs Manchester City today; the odds as we all know are in city's favor, but what if Arsenal are the team that qualifies for the final. Manchester United vs Chelsea tomorrow; IIRC, United have beaten Chelsea three times already this season, are they going to deliver the last blow to their rivals and make it four, or will the blues get revenge Grin

What are your predictions? For me, it's Manchester City vs Manchester united in the final, a derby final will do for me Grin

P.S, I placed my bet on City to win half time and on United to qualify.


Frankly I was quite surprised to watch the Arsenal vs Manchester City match, Arteta was very good at making strategies to strengthen the defense
Arsenal is difficult to penetrate by Manchester City players. The final score of 2-0 for Arsenal is indeed worth it, if Arsenal can consistently play well.
It is not impossible to become an FA Cup champion. And Aubameyang is playing superbly, hopefully Arsenal can keep Aubameyang from moving
next season.


@coyster it seems that Arsenal has advanced to the finals, and like @Mcobian I’m surprised too that Pep team was defeated and this is not a good sign for Manchester City. Further for tonight fixture I’m hoping that Manchester United will win the game, and then beat Arsenal in the final to win the trophy, who else feels the same?.

Arsenal all te way
what an unexpected result...
at first, I was sure that City would win this match but Arsenal was the team that deserved to the final. Manchester United vs Chelsea, I support the blue team to go to the final against Arsenal, hopefully, the blue team will win the match.

Timm Klose's expulsion marked Norwich's fate. There were good performances from the team even after this red card. But the exhaustion of the players did not allow to contain more to Manchester. Overtime is decisive and that is when football can be cruel at times.
Now in the semi-finals Manchester United and Chelsea FC on July 18/19, 2020.
Which team will go to the final?


The Semi final clash between Manchester United and Chelsea FC will be a hardfought one; and with United defeating chelsea 3 consecutive times this season; it makes it even more close; chelsea come into the game wanting to revenge and get a victory; while united will look forward to continuing their run of vivctories over Chelsea; With full squads available for both sides; i see Manchester United advancing to the finals to face Arsenal.

Just watching Norwich vs Man Utd, it’s crazy to see how far United have fallen since Fergie retired. I hated him when he was there but I have to admit it shows how good he was when you see how many levels in quality they’ve dropped.
Especially considering the players he would nurture right from being nobodies to being well known legends. Fergie was a genius. Manchester United Currently is definitely nowhere near the level of Fergie Man United in terms of performance even though they now splash money everywhere to try to get top players, something they used to make fun of to Chelsea and Manchester City.

Man United played not so bad actually. Norwich was playing sooo defensively with 8-9 players in penalty box once MU players getting the ball. And dont forget to give credit to Krul. With the defenders Norwich have currently, they would conceded much more goals if it's not Krul as their goalkeeper.

It's so frustrating for Man United players when they were trying hardly to score, even Solskjaer had to replace Bailly with Martial. Like the commentator said, Norwich played nothing to lose. It's still far away to make MU as great as Fergie's era, but seems they are on the right track right now. Duo Bruno and Pogba is very promising so far, and Maguire really gives a lot difference since he arrived.

Statistically, Chelsea has bigger chance to win, but Man United always give big surprise every time they play big team. With Arsenal vs Man City in the other match, it's the best FA Cup's semi final drawing in few last years imo.

Manchester united still got some lots of improvements after Fergie left, what will you say about Arsenal? There is no sign of improvement, Arsenal is now struggling to qualify for Europa cup spot, they even struggle to win Sheffield United today in the FA cup, a club that Wenger will use feeders team and still win convincingly

Norwich were being so bad it was embarassing to see Manchester United could not take full advantage. But who am I to say my team did not make it this far so kudos to all those who got through.

Arsenal,,, well. Needed a penalty, gave away a goal to Sheffield, before finally netting to win. They will hope not to meet City because it will all be over if so.

The Semi Final United vs Chelsea is going to be very interesting.
The Blues played well against Leicester and it seems that they are dedicated to win the FA Cup in order to save the season. It would be a great accomplishment for Lampard as well.
