Manchester United 1-3 Chelsea - PLAYER RATINGS: Olivier Giroud and Mason Mount shine in FA Cup semi-final but David De Gea and Harry Maguire disappoint for sloppy United
* Olivier Giroud has a knack for scoring in the FA Cup and done it again on Sunday
* Mason Mount threatened all game and deserved his goal early in the second half
* Man United were underwhelming and had few performances worth talking about
Chelsea have reached the FA Cup final after beating Manchester United 3-1 at Wembley Stadium.
Frank Lampard's men were the deserved winners in the end as United put in a sloppy performance contrasting to their form of late.
Sportsmail's Chris Wheeler gives his verdict on the displays of both sets of players.
Manchester United (3-4-1-2)
DAVID DE GEA - 4
Picked ahead of cup keeper Romero. Poor effort to save the first goal and an awful one for the second.
VICTOR LINDELOF - 6
Performed well on the whole but guilty of losing Giroud in build-up to the first goal
HARRY MAGUIRE - 5
Cut his head in collision with teammate Bailly and unfortunate to score an own-goal for Chelsea’s third.
ERIC BAILLY - 6
Brought in as part of back-three but went off before half-time after clashing heads with Zouma and Maguire.
AARON WAN-BISSAKA - 5.5
Poor distribution in the face of Chelsea press, and again looked vulnerable at his back post.
FRED - 5
Subbed by Pogba shortly after half-time after average display. The Frenchman should probably have started.
NEMANJA MATIC - 5.5
Had little influence and missed a chance to get United back in the game with late header.
BRANDON WILLIAMS - 5
First start since lockdown and looked rusty. Gave the ball away for Chelsea’s second goal.
BRUNO FERNANDES - 7
Injured three times in the first half but still United’s most creative player and then converted late penalty.
Bruno Fernandes did, however, provide Manchester United with a solid performance
DANIEL JAMES - 5
Came in for Mason Greenwood but struggled to have a significant impact on the game.
MARCUS RASHFORD - 5.5
Had an off day and wasted United’s best chance when he fired wide early in the second half.
OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER - 5
Made changes to the line-up and system but it backfired as United lost their fluency.
Substitutes: Pogba (for Fred 55, 6), Mata, Martial (for Bailly 45+2, 6.5), Pereira, Romero, Fosu-Mensah (for Wan-Bissaka 79, 6), Ighalo (for Rashford 79, 5.5), Greenwood (for James 56, 6), McTominay
Scorer: Fernandes pen 85
Booked: Pogba
Referee: Mike Dean - 7
Difficult stop-start game due to injuries but got the penalty decision right.
