Football: Pedro's header puts Chelsea in FA Cup semi-final


(Reuters) - A goal by substitute Pedro put Chelsea into the FA Cup semi-final with a 2-1 win away to Leicester City after extra time on Sunday. The previous three times Chelsea have knocked Leicester out, in 1997, 2000 and 2012, they won the competition. Chelsea could have repeated their goal when Willian put Morata through again, Kasper Schmeichel bringing off a double save. In extra time, substitute Pedro missed for Chelsea but made amends when the Leicester goalkeeper was caught in no-man's land. The win ended a run of five away matches without success and Chelsea will now be favourites to reach another FA Cup final.
