FA CUP SHOCKERS: CHELSEA AND MANCHESTER CITY ELIMINATED!
Stunning upsets rocked the FA Cup as Chelsea and Manchester City, two Premier League giants, were both knocked out in the last 16 by lower-tier teams — in what may go down as one of the most unforgettable days in the competition’s recent history.
❌ Chelsea 2-4 Bradford City (League One)
In a result that left fans and pundits stunned, third-tier Bradford City pulled off a miraculous comeback at Stamford Bridge. José Mourinho’s men were 2-0 up by the 38th minute thanks to goals from Gary Cahill and Ramires, and seemingly cruising to victory. But what followed was a collapse of epic proportions.
Bradford roared back with four unanswered goals, silencing the Bridge and completing one of the greatest comebacks in FA Cup history.
🗣 Mourinho had previously said it would be a “disgrace” to lose to Bradford — and yet, the unthinkable happened.
❌ Manchester City 0-2 Middlesbrough (Championship)
Over at the Etihad Stadium, second-division Middlesbrough pulled off a major upset of their own, defeating City 2-0 in a clinical away performance.
Patrick Bamford opened the scoring in the 53rd minute, and Kike sealed the deal deep into stoppage time (93rd minute), capitalizing on a City team that looked disjointed and uninspired.
