Manchester City beat Chelsea 1-0 at Wembley Stadium on Saturday thanks to a moment of magic from Antoine Semenyo. The forward brought to life a final that had produced little in the way of chances or excitement with a spectacular back-heeled goal in the second half. Running onto a cross from Erling Haaland in the 72nd minute, Semenyo flicked his heel at the ball and directed it low into the far corner past diving Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez. Victory kept City in the hunt for a domestic trophy treble, having already won the English League Cup. Pep Guardiola's team is also second in the Premier League, two points behind Arsenal with two rounds to go. This was Guardiola's 17th major trophy in 10 years at City and his 35th in his career overall. City has won the Cup eight times and moved level with Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham as equal third on the all-time winners' list. Defeat means Chelsea will end the season trophyless --- a year after being crowned Club World Cup champion --- in what has been a crisis-ridden campaign. ___ AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer
