The big FA Cup crunch clash between Chelsea and Liverpool at Wembley Stadium presented its 141st edition of the competition as the Reds triumphed over their rivals with a 6-5 win on penalties. Liverpool denied Chelsea the Carabao Cup trophy earlier in the season so the victory had reaffirmed the realistic nature of their push for a quadruple while their rivals were left in the pool of defeat for the second time, thanks to their inability to compliment the Carabao Cup loss.

Recall that Both teams have met four times this season with all games drawn within the regulation time even though the Reds swept away the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup titles on penalties. Also, the Reds haven’t won the FA Cup since 2006 while the Blues last won it in 2017 against Jose Mourinho's Manchester United thus, both teams were desperate to clinch the title but only the Reds whacked the day.

Although Thomas Tuchel in a pre-match conference couldn’t hide his dissatisfaction over the injury worries of Mateo Kovacic, the Croatian played until the second half. However, his counterpart Jurgen Klopp also expresses his feelings on Fabinho who sustained an injury during the Premier League clash against Aston Villa, not to worry Naby Keita was in to give Chelsea a run for their money.

Here are 5 reasons why the Blues deserves the FA Cup trophy even though Liverpool took the day;
