- Manager pays tribute to Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha
- ‘It’s been a dream of theirs to win the FA Cup’
Brendan Rodgers was delighted to see dreams come true after a stunning goal from Youri Tielemans saw Leicester beat Chelsea at Wembley and win the FA Cup for the first time in their history.
It was a special day for Leicester as they battled to a tense win in front of some 21,000 supporters. Rodgers paid tribute to the club’s owner, Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, whose father Vichai died in a helicopter crash in 2018, and praised his players for showing courage against a team as strong as Chelsea.
