Manchester United emerged victorious over their arch-rivals Liverpool in a dramatic FA Cup quarter-final on Sunday. The final score was a thrilling 4-3 after extra time!
The Red Devils got off to a strong start, with Scott McTominay putting them ahead early in the first half.
However, Liverpool responded emphatically just before halftime. First, Alexis Mac Allister drew them level, and then Mohamed Salah put them in front, sending a wave of despair through the Old Trafford crowd.
But United refused to give up. The tide began to turn again in the second half, with Antony equalizing with a well-placed shot.
The game remained deadlocked throughout the remaining regulation time, sending the tie into a tense extra time period.
Marcus Rashford, who had been criticized for missing a clear scoring opportunity earlier in the game, redeemed himself by scoring a crucial equalizer in the 112th minute.
Just when it seemed like the game was headed for penalties, Amad Diallo stepped up with a dramatic winner in the 121st minute, sending Old Trafford into a frenzy.
This win is a major boost for Erik ten Hag’s side and could prove to be a turning point in their season.
They now face Coventry City in the semi-finals, with a chance to end their trophy drought.
For Liverpool, it ends their dreams of achieving an unprecedented quadruple of trophies, but their focus will now shift to securing the Premier League title and winning the Champions League.
