Chelsea will face Tottenham Hotspur in the semi-finals of the Emirates English FA Cup.

The Blues, who ousted Manchester United 1-0 in the quarter-finals of the competition on Monday night, will face Spurs in the first semi-final at Wembley.

The only goal of the game was scored by N’Golo Kante early in the second half.

It was Kante’s second goal of the season with his first also coming against United in a 4-0 Premier League win earlier in the season.

Super Eagles forward Victor Moses featured from the start before going off for Kurt Zouma in the dying minutes of the game.

The win means Chelsea are now unbeaten in their last 12 games against Manchester United in all competitions (W6 D5), last losing in October 2012.

United started the stronger and were almost rewarded for their good start on 12 minutes through Henrikh Mkhitaryan but his low left-foot strike rolled narrowly off target.

Arsenal who defeated fifth-tier Lincoln City FC 5-0 at the Emirates Stadium last Saturday will face Manchester City in the other semi-final also at Wembley.

The semi-final matches will be played on Saturday, April 22 and Sunday, April 23.
