London - Didier Drogba snatched the winner seven minutes from time as Chelsea edged out Arsenal 2-1 at Wembley to reach the FA Cup final.
The striker pounced after Florent Malouda had equalized Theo Walcott's deflected early strike to set up a final against either Manchester United or Everton, who meet on Sunday.
Arsenal left Andrei Arshavin and Samir Nasri on the bench at the start but it mattered little as Walcott put them ahead, with a strike that deflected off Ashley Cole's hand.
That came after 17 minutes and neither side was at their fluent best as chances came and went.
London, Mar. 31: Chelsea's Ivory Coast international striker Didier Drogba has said that football is nothing compared to the death of 19 people in a deadly stadium stampede before a World Cup qualifier in Ivorian capital Abidjan.
London - Didier Drogba hit out at former Chelsea manager Luiz Felipe Scolari and pledged his future to the club in newspaper interview on Friday.
The Ivory Coast forward has been much criticised for his poor form this season, and Scolari questioned his commitment shortly before his dismissal last week.
He has also been linked with a move to Italy to rejoin his former manager Jose Mourinho at Internazionale, but he insisted he wants to stay.
"I am happy with everyone here and want to be a Chelsea player," Drogba told the Sun.
London, Feb. 20 : Ivory Coast and Chelsea striker Didier Drogba believes that Dutch coach Guss Hiddink will be successful in uniting the players at the club, and take it back on the victory trail.
"Hiddink is just what Chelsea need right now. When you manage a team like Chelsea, you need to unite the team when things are rough - not divide them. Chelsea is a family - and a family needs to be together. When Scolari started blaming individuals, then that was bad. To name one player as to blame for what happened in a squad of 24 is wrong," The Sun quoted Drogba, as saying.
