Leicester City are FA Cup champions
Chelsea and Leicester City faced off on Saturday evening in the FA Cup final.
The Foxes were aiming to clinch their first-ever FA Cup whilst Chelsea were looking to pick up their first piece of silverware under Thomas Tuchel.
In the end, though, it would be Leicester who emerged victorious at Wembley.
The tie was a fairly close affair, with neither side, in truth, looking at their best.
However, the game would be won be a simply stunning striker from Youri Tillemans just after the hour mark:

Tammy Abraham’s girlfriend is not happy
In the aftermath of the tie, much of the chatter from a Chelsea perspective has centered on Tammy Abraham.
Despite being reduced to a bit-part role under Thomas Tuchel, Abraham remains Chelsea’s top-scorer in all competitions this season.

However, the 23-year-old was completely omitted from the Blues’ matchday squad on Sunday.
This would lead to Abraham’s girlfriend expressing her frustration towards Thomas Tuchel on Instagram:
“How on earth do you make the decision to leave your top goal scorer out of the squad for a final?
“The same person who even scored the goals to actually qualify for this competition?
“It’s not making any sense whatsoever.”
