Overview
- Antoine Semenyo settled the FA Cup final with a back-heel that gave Manchester City a 1-0 win over Chelsea at Wembley.
- The strike secured City’s eighth FA Cup title and a second trophy this season after the earlier League Cup win over Arsenal.
- The goal came from an Erling Haaland cut-back, and Semenyo said he reacted in a split second to improvise the finish.
- Since a January move from Bournemouth, Semenyo’s scoring run has hit double figures for City after a 10-goal first half with Bournemouth, with outlets also crediting him with a Ghanaian single-season Premier League mark of 20 goals.
- AFP reports he is expected to be a key figure for Ghana at the 2026 World Cup, where the Black Stars face England, Croatia and Panama in Group L.
