The United keeper is under pressure after a series of uncharacteristic mistakes this season, and there was no way back for his team yesterday after his poor attempts to keep out shots from Olivier Giroud and Mason Mount either side of half-time.
Chelsea were handed a third when Maguire diverted a cross past De Gea at his near post and, although Bruno Fernandes converted United’s 19th penalty of the season, it was nothing more than a consolation as the Blues – who had lost their three previous matches with United this season – cruised into the final, which takes place on August 1.
AT THE EMIRATE
Mikel Arteta outwitted his mentor, Pep Guardiola Seven months after leaving him to ensure his first season as Arsenal manager will end with an FA Cup final with a 2-0 victory – secured by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s double – that ended Manchester City’s title defence on Saturday.
RESULTS
Arsenal 2:0 Man City
Manchester United 1 – 3 Chelsea
