Chelsea have booked their place in the FA Cup semi-final after they secured a hard-fought 2-0 win over Sheffield United on Sunday at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues entered the encounter on the back of an unbeaten run of form, having knocked Atlectico Madrid out of the Champions League on Wednesday following a 3-0 aggregate score-line.
Oliver Norwood’s own goal in the first half had proven to be the only difference at the Bridge as the home side held on to it to stroll to victory.
Both teams enjoyed some good possession that neither counted, but Norwood eventually broke the deadlock after he directed the ball into his own net as he tried to block it to make a cross-shot from Ben Chilwell.
McGoldrick went close for Sheffield in the dying minutes of the half, but the threat was fended off by Kepa Arrizabalaga who was in goal for the home side.
Christian Pulisic should have made it 2-0 shortly after the restart but saw his effort from a tight angle was blocked by Ramsdale.
The hosts added another goal at the death through Hakim Ziyech to seal the victory over Sheffield.
Chelsea have so far, conceded just twice in fourteen games since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel and will hope to continue in similar fashion after the international break.
The win earned them a spot in the last four of the competition they reached the finals last season, joining Man City who booked their place on Saturday, March 20, after a hard-fought win over Everton.
