Even against a championship team, Chelsea was so overwhelmed and lucky they were still able to win until the final minute of the match. Leeds played very well because they managed to put pressure on Chelsea from the start and even if Chelsea finally conceded it wouldn't be a surprise. The match ended with a score of 3-2 for Chelsea's victory in the FA Cup match and both teams did not proceed to extra time.
Chelsea really played well today and they deserved the victory. Leeds United were also on a good momentum and that gave them the confidence to net in two goals in tonight’s game against Chelsea. The FA Cup is getting more interesting as the big teams are the ones advancing and eliminating the smaller teams. I never expected the game to be this intense at this stage of the league, I see a more competitive competition ahead as they advance to the next round of the competition.
No one will even think that Manchester United will win Manchester City in the next game they are going to play, because Manchester City is way more strong in terms of squad and performance, so expecting them to win is like something unexpected to expect Manchester United to win. Although everyone has seen their last performance with Luton Town, I think I should reserve my words because Manchester City definitely won. Manchester United, so all discussions should be cut short because in the game that Manchester United played today against Nottingham Forest, they were just able to score a goal, although the goal consisted of three points, so we can still say that they tried their best, but their best is not enough to win Manchester City.
That match will be a tough one and a winner cannot be decided just yet. Manchester City looks like the better team to win without any doubt of Manchester United having a chance against them but sometimes football is not always like that and the team you underrate could be the team that will later win the match. Statically and based on recent performance in this league, both of the teams have equal advantage to make it to the next round of the competition but looking farther away, Manchester City is the bigger team that has more chances to win than Manchester United because of their overall current form in all competitions this season.
