cross to put the ball at the back of the net to restore parity when United was a goal down.
Despite Manchester United playing below par, Hernandez looked sharp and certain in his strike on goal. In the incidence, Petr Cech somehow stretched out his fingertips to divert the Mexican diving header over the bar in what he called "one of the best saves of his career".
Chelsea went ahead to knock United out of the FA cup with a solitary goal. Speaking about the save, Cech said: 'I can safely state that was one of the best saves of my career. "I knew Hernandez was waiting at the back post and I leap in there in order to cover as much space as possible. "I was bracing for the fact that the ball could also bounce off in an awkward direction and I managed to stick my hand up in the very last split of a second. "It was exceptionally difficult. '
Hernandez walked up to me afterwards and asked how on earth that was even possible.' Hernandez has scored 7 goals in 11 appearances against Chelsea but this time, Cech was intelligent enough to keep him off.
