Leicester had been beaten in all their four previous FA Cup final appearances, most recently in 1969, and it was a goal that will be remembered as one of the finest in the competition's 149-year history that earned their maiden win. Leicester players celebrate Youri Tielemans' winning goal in front of jubilant fans in the FA Cup final in London. "Youri Tieleman's goal was like an old school FA cup winning goal but also Kasper Schmeichel's save, those are the special moments you need in games," he added.
