Chelsea 1-0 Manchester United - PLAYER RATINGS: N'Golo Kante stands tall as match winner outshines Paul Pogba in stellar FA Cup quarter-final

Chelsea booked their place in the FA Cup semi-finals as N'Golo Kante's second-half strike was enough to knock out 10-man Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.

United played over half the match with a numerical disadvantage as Ander Herrera was sent off for a second bookable offence after fouling Eden Hazard on 35 minutes.

Jose Mourinho's side dug deep, but were eventually breached as Kante fired in the winning goal from long range as the Blues kept their hopes of a double alive in Antonio Conte's first season. Sportsmail's SAMI MOKBEL rates the players on show.
