Manchester City have qualified for the final of the FA Cup, thanks to a 1-0 win over Chelsea on Saturday.
The Premier League champions saw their hopes of winning a Double Treble end on Wednesday, after they lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League.
And they seemed to be harbouring hangover from that game against the Blues.
Chelsea had several good chances to take the lead at Wembley, but Nicolas Jackson was especially wasteful in front of goal.
With the match heading towards extra time, Bernardo Silva popped up at the near post to squeeze in his shot.
City will now play either Manchester United or Coventry in the final.
