Fantastic Foxes triumph at Wembley! Youri Tielemens delivers Leicester City their FIRST EVER FA Cup with thunderous second-half effort as they hold on to beat Chelsea after late VAR scare

Youri Tielemans' thunderbolt strike sealed Leicester's maiden FA Cup triumph with a gritty 1-0 win over Chelsea at Wembley.

The Belgium midfielder rifled an unstoppable effort into the top corner from 25 yards, as Brendan Rodgers' Foxes put another genuine stamp on years of recent quality.

Former Leicester full-back Ben Chilwell saw a last-gasp Chelsea effort ruled out for offside after a video assistant referee review, while Kasper Schmeichel earlier made a superb save to deny Mason Mount.
