If this was Antonio Conte’s last game as manager of Chelsea, it ended on a high note as the Blues survived a second-half onslaught by Manchester United to lift the FA Cup.

Eden Hazard was in sparkling form as his first-half penalty, after he had been fouled by Phil Jones, proved the deciding factor.

Check out our Chelsea ratings below …

Thibaut Courtois: The busier of the two goalkeepers. Saved well from Marcus Rashford, twice, and Phil Jones. 8 (out of 10).

Cesar Azpilicueta: Mr Consistency, Mr Dependable. Sterling work from the Spaniard, as usual. 7.

Gary Cahill: A calm, experienced head in an at times high octane game. Showed his value to Chelsea – and England. 8.

Antonio Rudiger: Robust presence, nullifying the threat of Rashford and then Romelu Lukaku. 7.

Victor Moses: Sent off in 2017 final against Arsenal, he stayed on his feet this time and was a useful outlet. 6.

N’Golo Kante: Excellent and exceptionally busy. Shielded his defence and snuffed out attempted counter attacks. 8.

Tiemoue Bakayoko: Bought as Nemanja Matic’s replacement, but second best to the Serb early on. Grew into the game. 6.

Cesc Fabregas: Wanted to replace his lost 2005 winners’ medal. Could not get on the ball. 6.

Marcos Alonso: Had to curtail his rampaging from left-back, but was equal to his opponents on the flank. 7.

Eden Hazard: Scored a penalty on his 300th Chelsea appearance, after being brought down by Jones. 8.

Olivier Giroud: Stuck to his task well, despite little opportunity. Seemed to relish the isolation at times. 6.

Substitutes:

Alvaro Morata (for Giroud, 89): Sent on for tired legs. Finishes a mediocre first season with a trophy. 5

Willian (for Hazard, 90): Brought on to run down the time. 5.
