| Match Summary | Leicester paid for giving Johnny Weddle too much space as he bagged a hat-trick and sent Pompey back to Wembley for a second Cup Final in five years. A packed St Andrews witnessed a won sided game with Pompey in charge from the start with Weddle showing movement that Heywood his marker could not match. Manchester City thumped Aston Villa 6-1 and will meet Pompey at the National Stadium on 28 April. |
