Amad Diallo scored a late-minute goal to power Man United to a 4-3 win over Liverpool, ensuring the Red Devils’ qualification into the semi-final of the FA Cup.
The Ivorian winger was sent off for a second booking after
taking his shirt off in celebration at the end of a chaotic 120 minutes that
kept Man United’s chances of ending the season with silverware alive.
Twice Erik ten Hag’s men had to stage late comebacks to
reach the last four.
Two goals in three minutes from Alexis Mac Allister and
Mohamed Salah towards the end of the first half turned swung the game in
Liverpool’s favour after Scott McTominay opened the scoring.
Antony’s first goal at Old Trafford for more than a year kept
Man United alive to send the game into extra-time.
Once again Liverpool edged in front when Harvey Elliott’s
deflected shot found the bottom corner.
But Marcus Rashford, who had missed a glorious chance to win
the tie deep into injury time, made amends by drilling home to make it 3-3.
Diallo then scored just his second ever Man United goal in
added time of extra-time at the end of a breakneck counter-attack from a
Liverpool corner, led by the impressive Alejandro Garnacho.
