FA Cup semi-final draw LIVE

Chelsea and Manchester City have found out their FA Cup semi-final opponents this afternoon as the draw is conducted at the London Stadium. The business end of the tournament is fast approaching, with just four teams remaining in contention for English football’s oldest honour. Liam Rosenior’s Blues routed League One strugglers Port Vale 7-0 on Saturday to reach this stage, while City produced a rather more impressive 4-0 defeat of Liverpool.

Southampton are now the lowest-ranked side in the competition after they stunned Arsenal at St Mary’s on Saturday, with goals from Ross Stewart and Shea Charles cancelling out Viktor Gyokeres’ second-half equaliser. Their efforts will be rewarded with a trip to Wembley in late April, though, where they will once again come up against Premier League opposition. One more win will see them book their first trip to the final since 2003.

West Ham were edged out by Leeds United after a thrilling quarter-final, though, settled on penalties after the Irons scored twice in second-half injury time to force an extra half-hour. Catch up with the draw LIVE below with Standard Sport’s dedicated blog.
