Ismaila Sarr scored two second-half goals as Crystal Palace booked their place in the FA Cup final for a third time following a 3-0 victory over Aston Villa at Wembley.
Eberechi Eze opened the scoring with a lovely finish in the 31st minute - assisted by Sarr - but a missed penalty from Jean-Philippe Mateta after the restart added extra drama in the second half.
Ollie Watkins started for Villa, who were missing the injured Marcus Rashford, and Unai Emery’s men were not without their chances to get on the scoresheet.
But it was Sarr that ensured the Eagles would be one win away from lifting the FA Cup for the first time when he completed his brace in the fourth minute of stoppage-time.
Villa had seven minutes of stoppage-time to turn things around, but Palace won the ball back and Sarr decided he was not finished, outpacing Konsa before slotting home in front of an enraptured sea of Eagles supporters.
