LONDON, ENGLAND - MAY 15: Ben Chilwell of Chelsea looks on after his effort is cleared by Caglar Soyuncu into Wes Morgan of Leicester City resulting in a goal that was later ruled out by VAR for offside during The Emirates FA Cup Final match between Chelsea and Leicester City at Wembley Stadium on May 15, 2021 in London, England. A limited number of around 21,000 fans, subject to a negative lateral flow test, will be allowed inside Wembley Stadium to watch this year's FA Cup Final as part of a pilot event to trial the return of large crowds to UK venues.
