Crystal Palace crashed out of the FA Cup semi-final after a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea.
Chances were limited in this Wembley encounter with Chelsea keeper Edouard Mendy saving well from Cheikhou Kouyate in the first half.
Substitute and former Palace loanee Ruben Loftus-Cheek put Chelsea ahead with a deflected shot after 65 minutes.
