not available so well it was Bernardo Silva from Portugal yesterday Bruno Fernandez from Port school today gets the second semi-final underway and indeed casmiro is in the back line inside dallow who was lined up at right back and Waka on the left [Applause] centry went at wolves that’s when they said afterwards uh they went there knowing that their best chance was to attack they left it very late of course they were two and down going into added time but managed to win 3-2 before extra time was required will they do the same here Matt do you think I wouldn’t be surprised Martin if I’m honest I think they really will try and have a go because they’re looking at the weakness of Manchester United which is that Center back pass partnership and you would think they’ll want to stretch them as much as they can trying to lure them higher up the pitch and then use that space in behind with Sims and wght the pace that they have I’m not sure if Maguire and Casmir would cope with it in the right areas and I think that will be the game plan from commentry why not have a go he you’re not here that often well Manchester United last won the FA Cup in 2016 under a Dutchman Louis vanal who wasn’t the manager within a few minutes of the final whistle I hope Beric tenh doesn’t know that piece of history but he might not a good home well we’re in the semi-final at the moment and uh he’d be happy to get to another FA Cup Final it would be as I mentioned before the kickoff and the second time in this long history of this wonderful competition that the final back-to-back years has involved the same two clubs Sims trying to flick it up here’s [Applause] Waka return to Wembley for kobby Mayo who’s played twice recently here for England at a tender age and he’s showing his familiarity with the place with that little surge forward Bruno Fernandez trying to slip it wide to garnacho lines it up right trying to lead a Counterattack and Rob Jones the referee gives centry a free kick is important block from Bidwell a moment ago centry looking like they’re going to sit I mean possibly in a back three actually I’m looking at their shape at the moment maybe Bidwell as a left side Center back and Van I as the as the as the right wi back sorry and it could well be a back three once they get into that formation in shape it’ll be a little bit clearer but certainly Midfield players drifting dropping back into that area there is Milan F EV and the newcomers signed from head ofan in his native Netherlands possesses a decent [Applause] throw can centry said he get off to a flyer here the ball flies in right trying to get there and he does dallow is on his case could stop the cross coming in KIRO trying to play it out from the back a little flip from gacho and how much of a presser centry going to chance here not full on no I mean that throw in dropped in a pretty much the perfect area didn’t it lovely first flick into that back post area could be a ful tool this afternoon m tomin is always useful for Manchester United getting goals scored the opener against Liverpool you’ll recall Rasmus hland now the rather enigmatic these days Marcus rashford but when he’s good he’s very good and he’s very good here comes out to Bruno Fernandez was probably trying to set Dow up closer to the center then but the pass forced him wide and garach takes it on and the corner it’s conceded by Thomas well early pressure they’re having to defend the edge of their box and inside their box really carefully here centry nice movement B actually just drops his shoulder and he cuts it back through the legs there’s a lot of bodies in there commentary really packing that 18 Yard Box especially when the ball’s [Applause] wide goalkeeper is Bradley Collins who went through the Youth System at Chelsea won the FA youth cup there but like a lot of youngsters has had to move on to get first team football elsewhere outswinger ohare deciding just shift it out of his own half actually had time to bring that down Anana puts it back into a good area and what a chance for garat what a chance he can’t believe it he could believe how easily the ball dropped to him here he’s not favorite to win this header here fernandz is a really good header into that space I think he’s on side as well M maybe just coming from deep but Bidwell puts his hands up straight away KN and he’s got to do better in the air there he can’t just be beaten that easily Ro on Calo an interesting play he come from Aston Villa and he want to leave at the end of the season his contracts up but more on that in a moment if he wins the FA Cup with commentary might change his mind Mark Robbins has had a lot to deal with in his this his second spell as manager of comry the first was short he’s been chance for over seven years now and goodness me he’s had a a lot of uh hardship and heartache to deal with the [Applause] clubs made a big mistake leaving it original ground at Highfield Road it was a gamble that didn’t pay off and they’ve been nomadic just the opposite of Manchester United who are thinking maybe they changing their ground under the new investment that’s come into the club com had to play at Northampton yeah and then in the other direction Birmingham city that’s to share with them I mean being a manager for that long is an achievement in itself at one club in the modern game but with the amount of trauma that they’ve had at centry he really has held it together at times’s [Applause] Van Ben Chief the captain and Josh Eckles the Center Midfield well as as they’ve settled they have got a back three in Martin Lati boder has gone into the center back kind I and uh a good race with one of the quicker fullbacks in the Premier League Aran Baku and get a corner yeah Lati boder who normally plays right back has gone in between the two center backs to make a three Mark Robbins obviously feeling that he needs that extra Center back in there so a lot of responsibility on Echo and sheath in the middle of the park to keep that solid Jake Bidwell had a little taste of first team football at Everton but a long time ago try and put it on Onana here you feel [Applause] back to Bidwell again but not where he wanted it where he could have dealt with [Applause] it it is a little bit like that at the moment From The Far Side we’re a bit luckier we’ve got the shade doesn’t make it any warmer though Matt does it no it doesn’t it’s unbelievably cold isn’t it for this stage in April here is O’Hare is an inish player with a lot of personality he’s you want to get on the ball as much as possible which is a great thing in this [Applause] company Bidwell out by Dow United play round the Press although gacho slow to pick himself up there are a man light in that respect he’s shotting forward now guy was suspended from the semi-final for Manchester United last season which they won on penalties against [Applause] Brighton I was at that game it was unbelievable how Brighton didn’t win it actually it like Chelsea yesterday yeah and Brighton season really did kind of fall apart after that they gave so much into that game Maguire nicely waited into the Run between the lines from momino here’s aan Baka rashford not shy of shooting but didn’t see a space so he crosses hard and low cut out by Maguire oh hair there here Ellis Sims this is the the fascination of the fixture they haven’t made that count between O’Hare and Chief and Matthew boder commits a foul but good Advantage played by referee Jones D airo hasn’t been his best season he came in really settled quickly he’s had injuries probably fitter to play at the backs of strangely to say because he could be challenged by Pace but rather than Maring around in Midfield [Applause] rolled the Sol of the foot by rashford out to [Applause] laka commentary really happy just to sit in and let Manchester United have the ball here they have to be careful though cuz good movement and passing combinations you don’t to sit too deep give up too much territory all the time here’s dominate trying the drag back that doesn’t come off King gets it out right to [Applause] chase another big poin of today is the quality in those moments isn’t it commentary win that ball at the back it can’t just be a punt up the field it’s got to be a little bit of finesse on the pass leave it in a space where one of your attacking players can get their body in hold the ball up or even break down the channel I haven’t really seen Maguire and casemiro stretched yet in this game Maguire Fernandez no one coming to him rashford trying to make angle for the shot he came back rashford’s way again it came M’s way Fernand is trying to tease it in and the Hai RS away but uh good covering by Diego do just that’s what they’re looking for man absolutely for a split second there I thought he might have just had the legs on him but Dalo was able to react quick enough it’s exactly the moments they’re looking for coming out [Applause] here’s [Applause] kaziro able to advance but whole commentary team between him and net that Manchester United trying to find Hernandez now I must say has kept up a remarkable level of consistency given the constant chopping of changing of manager to some extent while he’s been there at Old Trafford teammates as well the inconsistencies of performance can’t really be leveled at him too often and in behind him is [Applause] oare just did well there Harry MaGuire to put enough force in there just to nudge Sims to the ground referee saw it as a clean t [Applause] tackle I think comary reason be happy that they set up like this yeah they would expect that kind of percentage really at this stage in the game rashford trying to find a little bit of space and that’s where it’s hard to get [Applause] it on the gallop is vanik Sims good tracking back by gache you would say but not too good from com point of view yeah it’s got to be a better pass on that from Sims hasn’t it they’re the ones that you need that real piece of quality that’s the second time fatti boder has gone a little bit rash with holand in that position I think the referee just having a little word with him he’s clouding to the floor there for a second time can’t be rash he came system at Manchester City yeah boder and uh Glory here today and it’d be lining up against Manchester City to work hard and his teammates have got to be they’ve got to be 10 out of 10 and maybe Manchester United somewhat less football and the FA Cup do strange things on special days [Applause] May a little give and go Bruno Fernandez patience the name of the game at the moment it is and commentary again it you know their game plan is to we’re going to make Manchester United work really hard to create something they only give anything away no mistakes no poor decisions United have got to earn it rashford [Applause] T this touch Tak him back Maguire like gone in the way here Manu has got the ability to take opponents on but there’s a lot of opponents around [Applause] him airo is contented himself with little sideways passes what’s he going to do this time a look a bit more forward no Mayu did here’s ju vaka we got to move it quickly when a team’s sating like this low block not willing to come out anywhere near the halfway line and apply pressure have to move the ball quickly to to create the space sometimes if you try to force it if you’re in United red that [Applause] happens well the good and the great the Jason Wilcox who’s just joined the new ownership or part ownership former Premier League winner with backburn Rover as a player been quite a short period at to Southampton as a sporting director and but prior to that he was at Manchester City now he’ll be trying to un seat Manchester City as part of the new back room staff and a Jim rackliffe so David brailsford Dan Ashworth likely to arrive from Newcastle as well the sporting director they’ve got a new CEO as well some sorting out to be done an FA Cup win would some way I suppose honor the departing back room staff I mean it’s a really indicator that they obviously feel something near the top of the the tree hasn’t been right for a while yeah all those changes so you don’t just have to pay for players now you have to pay for back room staff as well will cost a transfer fee and I’m sure Dan Ashworth Newcastle Holding Out for Big Money it’s an important role though isn’t it yeah well it should be valued has such [Applause] absolutely commentary need a bit of the ball don’t they it’s going to be a long afternoon what we 18 minutes in they been sat screening shuffling dropping off pressing in not really having much joy with the ball at all and now’s rashford’s in behind them that’s the first time they’ve really been opened up rashford says it must be a Corner if it isn’t the corner it’s a bad Miss casemiro opened out that’s the pass from casemiro is brilliant sees the space but the positioning is not quite right Vani in that right side just gets the wrong side of Marcus rashford he has his touch and then I’m not too sure if he’s trying to score there or nudge it passing there’s not a lot of real intent with the left foot effort here from Marcus rashford I think he’s trying to go past him maybe just drops it wide doesn’t really for me make his mind up what to do with that situation at the same end of the ground yesterday Phil foden was caught in a a similar position he went round the goalkeeper but ran out of room could kind of look caught between two minds there Marcus rash whether to have a touch or actually just try and punch it with his left foot into the bottom corner the ball kind of ended up in between commentary got it all wrong they were three against two Manchester United favor exactly what they want to avoid that long ball over the top especially when you you’re five at the back you switch off in that fullback [Applause] position worked it out well under a bit of pressure to pidwell he just got to keep the ball for a bit they’ve lost it here in the dangerous area too Bruno Fernandez takes at [Applause] him hland oh little Dart towards the near post there might have given Scott momy the opening goal was horrible for LTE boder wasn’t in the middle there’s the deflection off the head all bodies back in line but this really could have gone anywhere cuz it comes in kind of scuffed into the box as a horrible bobbler facing towards his own goal Manchester United trying to turn the screw here crossing the ball it’s still nil nil variation here that uh did well till it came to the last piece in the jigsa not a very complicated jigsa either no the bll shouldn’t get there it’s a poor setup look at the space from the penalty spot out to the edge of the 18 yd box you can’t have that kind of freedom a player like gacho’s ability yes it’s a tough ball to hit and he cuts right across it and it’s not on target but bit of a warning shot for commentary you can’t drop all your bodies into that sixy box area that cup final that inspired you back in 1987 commentary reached along the way by winning at Old Trafford the same Keith hatchin who scored in the final got a very scrambly goal was enough to knock United out [Applause] so it wasn’t as good as his diving header in the final though wasn’t worth reliving that I think for him it probably was there an expression they all count and that certainly did Count here’s Bidwell tomin there misunderstanding by kitching he’s gone to try and sort out his own mistake the help of Ben Chief they G mat on the ground I don’t think they’ll be too happy with how they’ve handled the ball centry I know that the out of possession setup is obviously the key that they’ve been working at to make life difficult and King just making sure garnacho knows he’s there after the tackle it was a bit of a reaction after giving the ball away cheaply but but it’s going to be precious that ball for comentry because you cannot defend the whole game in this fashion you have to have a little bit more of an outlet than what they’ve got they not quite got that balance right in the opening 22 minutes yeah we’re a quarter of the way through the game if it finishes in 90 minutes Momin Nao back on his feet hard and low and Manchester United have taken the lead and at very close range Scott momy couldn’t miss he set the ball rolling against Liverpool and he’s done the same here at Wembley it had been coming mats absolutely Martin really have been coming commentry not really in the game in terms of posing a threat or having the ball even and Manchester United well really comfortable in possession is that man who has just got a goal scoring touch this season I mean defensive Midfield player he used to be now he’s looking more like a number 10 he just gets in the right position it’s a lovely delivery in from Doo that Gully that you want to hit between the retreating Defenders and the goalkeeper he’s right there you’ve got about a 6yd area and he just bangs the ball in there Collins comes out to block it but M dominate with the simplest of tappings they playing like a number 10 that’s number 10 of his goal tally for this season and he is one who’s I wouldn’t say inconspicuously but he’s worked his way up the ranks the former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho actually created an award to give Scott momy when he was a young player the manager player of the Season well that says a lot that says a lot about his character I also think inter International football for Scotland has really elevated him Martin and it’s it’s given him the freedom to play these different roles as well which Manchester United maybe wouldn’t have played him in first shot on target but it had to be on target from there yeah but look at the attempt what a cross as well yeah great move lovely interchange of passing but centry with three center backs somebody has to tie in and deal with that cross better well here’s hair Wright looking for support they looking for support he was dispossessed and uh there wasn’t any thinking time I’m afraid no it was a bit of a gamble to go to ground from was it casemiro with the tackle yeah yeah but when you time it right and you win the ball it looks good and it was a good tackle from casemiro he had the the luxury of a recovering defender of Juan Baka right next to him so he went for the ball and he won it yeah ohare I think it was a made a good run down the left hand side of right but he couldn’t get the ball casemiro was in the way anyway here is Dow now casmiro is a strolling player today but he can put put up the barricades and comve got to try and find a way around him now Momin here’s [Applause] rashford Maguire it’s relax Manchester United a little bit although they had the ball they were maybe a bit tense at times trying to force it and rashford trying to Weave Away through whole pack of sky blue Defenders Fernandez tomin trying to maybe return the compliment for Dow was making a good burst from right back rashford from the left all hands to the pump for centry City vanik is having a lot of work to do on this right hand side at right wing back maybe a little bit surprised he set up with a back three actually I just felt maybe this was the time to really take the game to Manchester United they’re not quite at full strength certainly at the back and they’ve ended up sitting really deep haven’t they not not actually getting out and applying much pressure to United well in their one FA Cup Final they went a go down down in the first or second minute to Clive Allen who often sits in the seat you’re occupying here Matt I think was Clive’s 49th goal of a a wonderful season but he ended up with an FA Cup losers medal so bounce back ability commentary of this generation have got to try and show it [Applause] now here’s Maguire [Applause] I had the experience on that day of traveling to Wembley in the Tottenham hbur team bus which was something that happened in television in the day yeah I didn’t go back on the bus I can tell you that you avoided it well I think they avoided me I think I was seen as a lucky charm but yeah we interviewed live from the coach on its way to Wembley was a great honor to be allowed to do that I didn’t take my boots here gacho United looking to strike again and uh no surprise that Momin was in there again well even with the wing backs who should be able to really get tight to rashford and gar ATO when that switch of play happens they’ve got time to go at them in the box that that kind of distance isn’t quite right they’ve got to get tighter you got your three center backs certainly Bidwell and vanag have to go out and get closer to the Y play don’t allow them that space to take a run at them and then drop a shoulder and get across him because you’re talking about two really good players in garnacho in [Applause] rashford this is the first FA Cup meeting between the two clubs since that fourth round in 1987 hav met in the leag since relegation in 2001 uh lost the old tra John harson was playing for them he’s someone we’ve seen here today Mayu [Applause] still Manchester United you sense really fancying this now but nobody going in on a bit of a loopy cross that uh was just too high for Rasmus [Applause] [Music] [Applause] hland it’s not sticking at all is it every time the ball goes forward certainly from the goalkeeper or any long pass it’s Manchester United that come out with the ball yeah for 20 minutes it looked as though the defensive part of the plan was okay yeah um but the we got to hold the ball up find a way out find an outlet you have to which should be part of that that wasn’t working hasn’t worked now they’ve got to try and summon the uh the belief I wouldn’t think Mar Robins at one nil would want to change it but no I think you’ll see it into halim hopefully not concede another and then have a little regroup and and see how you want to go about it but sooner or later they going have to be a little bit more [Applause] expansive tenh har has had to deal with constant questioning about his own future about the ownership of the club about whether the dressing room is Happy fa a cup win you would think of course a semi-final is not going to come into that category but actually winning the trophy would buy him some more time even very patient with the media here’s his fellow Countryman benik making a bit of good ground for the opposition centry [Applause] city right but uh T that having got there well took a bit of a risk comes in towards Sims is strong in the box and holding the ball up C get a free kick and this does represent a little bit of a chance at least a shooting chance they’ve got bodies forward haven’t they they got the wing backs up the pitch ball into the box Sims with the chest back and bit of a rash decision from mctom to go to ground there just stay on your feet and shepher the ball out and do what United have done very well in this half so far which is regain possession so well when commentary have had [Applause] it well vanak does have a reputation free kicks Jake b l the left footer which would perhaps not be the route to goal they like it’s sort of Saed across to join the other Wing back he’s got really fancy it from that kind of range isn’t he probably the more likely he going to be a cross into the box isn’t it I would have thought we’re about to find out going to take on another here now it’s Bidwell whatever the plan was it didn’t work I think that was an effort though wasn’t it probably that left footer into the near post I think he was looking to go over the wall it’s ambitious Andre Anana has had difficult moments most goalkeepers at this level do have those but when you’re Manchester United’s goalkeeper you are under greater scrutiny it’s not been the perfect season for him but he’s Justified his place from time to time with some brilliant contributions Josh Eckles can’t get forward he’s come through the ranks of Coventry Local [Applause] boy and there’s Steve AG grizovic the goalkeeper in the cup winning team of 1987 Auggie hugely popular figure not just in commentary but in football I remember him so well St grizovic what a goalkeeper he scored a goal didn’t he with a clearance in that’s right top division game and here’s gacho Collins aware that his momentum was going to take him out of the penalty area and might have had his ball the ball in his hands the commentary nearly un unstuck again with that long ball over the top just the timing of the run from gach I mean you’re dealing with good play that will come short and time that running behind but you have to be aware of that you got the extra Center back in that position can’t be that easy just to get over the top well they’ve come up with a variation haven’t they Manchester United whether it was out of necessity because the short inter playay in that attacking thir wasn’t really producing shots on goal then suddenly casmiro started proce juice from the back and others have followed and it’s now giving centry a bit of a conundrum yeah it is I mean they probably wouldn’t have expected to be able to hit that pass but it is on Chief mat boder SP at Swansea after leaving Manchester City I mean chief and eckel have barely touched the ball in the middle of the par for commentary have they they’ve had no opportunity for any kind of build that play getting the ball off the back three or playing through into the front it’s just not happened so far I think C MO is just s ging to the batl on the lines of well why don’t you give it into my feet yeah he’s got to belief in it they have to have the ball there’s a little look at the goal look at the cross in there lovely delivery and like good goal scorers do they take up good positions and that back post is a favorite usually get a tap in if nobody touches it on the way through do you think Rasmus hland was saying that should have been me I thought it was holand for a moment there’s similarity yeah there is not that I ever found myself at the back post for a taed m unfortunately I’ve seen you score goals in a world cup so you don’t be too modest not only seen you I was actually commentating shouting your name yeah [Applause] sometimes the second goal is the harder harder one to get and uh if you offered probably commentary at say 70 minutes One n down they probably accepted that at the start but they take it long way to go before we get there about half of [Applause] that forward by B I can well there was half a chance of squeezing it into Sims haven’t really seen Ellis Sims acceleration which is impressive yeah just a little wind of opportunity there just to lift that ball over the top wasn’t to see it and casemiro again pretty decisive with his tackling Chief did have a game in Arsenal’s first team did his learning of the trade the north London [Applause] Club in the end Bobby Thomas has to play it back py bodia [Applause] Collins jeez that’s better commentary that’s no want to play through the lines and maybe catch Manchester United out and get out the back line the next pass wasn’t good enough and now they’ve got a Chase back because Bruno Fernandez for a moment sensed opportunity and then he slowed it down a little bit the man united fans aren’t too happy with that I mean he really slowed it down didn’t he almost to say all right I’ll just wait let everyone get back in I think he was kitching with the pass out wide I mean that Center back position found himself in the Midfield spare which is they’re going to have to do that to get on the ball but there was so much space wasn’t there once they got the one or two passes off it just opened up for [Applause] centry casemiro and Bruno Fernandez offering the ball over the top of the Run for the ball over the top and Bruno just suggested to him why didn’t you play [Applause] it it can get a little bit upset if things don’t go quite according to his plans but he I haven’t seen that Martin no am I doing him a brave disservice he’s lost out here but suppose he cares nothing wrong with that here’s Sims packed up by Eckles stay in it comry City this is bit more promising and Josh Eckles breaks the line here putting it across towards Sims coming and that’s the best from commentary by a country mile here’s Thomas right and Sims that’s the the deadly they hope well that’s what I was expecting to see from commentry bit more of that brilliant play driving run from Eckles and look at this piece of Defending here from darlo that’s super play great right back position tucked in knowing his team’s in danger that is a fantastic tackle nearly on the goal line seems certain to score the doo in a great position seems two against wolves three against the national league Southside Maidstone United who eliminated the profile of non-league football to amongst the bigger boys knocked out IP switch you might recall here’s rashford no stranger to Wembley Club and for Country Momin that’s not enough on that and that still wants it from casmiro has other ideas Dall gacho had a bit of apologizing to do to his manager more on that in a [Applause] moment rashford that’s goalkeeper B gacho was substituted at halim at Bournemouth the United’s last game and there was some criticism on social media which he joined to by liking it and um you can’t keep those things quiet uh it is telling off and the matter is closed there’s not much you can really hide from there is there are you talking about in life generally I’m talking on social media all right you’re going to like it it’s out there isn’t it it is yeah yeah you can’t take it back [Applause] here is man we talking about Alejandro [Applause] gacho vasaka [Applause] gacho toog might just think his side having got the goal haven’t quite made the most of it obviously they’re out passing commentary pretty much 3 to one but last passage of play driven forward by Echo and Sims close to Ling it up well a reminder to Manchester United that the job is not done yet it’s the second best opening of the game wasn’t it so that’s all you need to know that’s all commentary need to hang on to but it came from them being a little bit more confident a little bit more buy with the [Applause] ball that’s hland oh it’s almost Stray by Eckles or enough teammates around to mop it up they’re having the ball more Martin I will say centry they’ve just almost found a little system where it’s like I think the three center backs were a bit panicky with the ball first 20 minutes or so no one was getting hold of it and now just calm down use the Midfield players build up a little bit yeah halim might just come a bit too soon for them there looking as though they’ve got some influence on proceedings here’s Wright who played in the World Cup for the USA and [Applause] Kata Chief’s getting more on the ball hair’s getting a bit more of the ball we saw that burst from Eckles such was Manchester United’s domination in the first 20 minutes she really thought this might be going to a feel like status but uh been better from centry and they haven’t conceded again I think Bidwell was the better pass then he was the left wing back in a wider position that ball over the top there’s too straight skipping on into Anana easily but these commentary are in the mindset of we can get forward get the wing backs up the pitch get the ball into the front Wright started to see a little bit more of it have to find a way of getting those players into the game d Bruno Fernandez might be an offside here but the flag has stayed down of course he’s an ation Manchester United play on oh boy did they play on and it’s the corner the flag hasn’t gone up great hit by rashford it’s another simple ball over the top that develops the chance in the moment Mar Marcus rashford’s coming onto that you know he’s hitting the target he’s super from this kind of range he’s got that lovely technique where he kind of knuckle balls it it’s a really good save actually plenty of power on that hit it’s a strong hand from Collins Cristiano Ronaldo Techni very much so good save by Brad Collins this is a big moment you feel for centry if they ship a second here on the stroke of halftime guire so dangerous in the air there he is so dangerous in the air Harry MaGuire and it is 2-0 and we’re still ticking on to the end of the first half and that’s a big set back for centry but a great moment of impetus for Manchester United I think you can put that crystal ball away now Martin talk that one up Corner set piece Maguire and this header is very Harry MaGuire I mean it’s far too much Freedom that zone or Mar have to have a player out in his face stopping him with that run up the moment he gets that kind of momentum Flight of the delivery spot on is such a simple header for magu he’s not going to score many simpler than that once he gets his forehead on the front of the ball it’s a nice technique he can see that near post area he just punches it back across the goal Super Header but far far too easy for Manchester United comentry will be hugely disappointed with that goal right before halftime Eric tenard punched the air and we don’t have players on the post seemingly these days and that’s uh very here evident in the in the Premier League let alone the championship it would be more back post though wouldn’t it if anyone’s on the post than the front well that has somewhat changed the complexion of it one n in commentary we think well we might take that but two in an FA Cup semi it looks lining up like a back four to me yes with L boder at right back on the ball here can a change of shape lead to a change of Fortune Mayu how do Manchester United player from here man I think they just maintain composure they’ve got Internationals all over the pitch world class players they’re 2N up against the a side a division below them I mean this should be very straightforward if I’m honest Martin keep the ball move commentary around maybe have them come onto them a little bit and then that third goal would really just finish it off well there have been a lot of late goals in their games recently some for Manchester United and some rather costly against them so now I’m sure Eric tag is is not sitting back with his feet up we know he isn’t because he’s standing on the edge of the technical area area Maguire here’s casmiro who positional play has been astute and he hasn’t had to hustle himself about too much maybe he will now commentary getting a little bit higher they’ve got three players wanting to kind of press higher up the pitch our hair is getting a little bit higher M dominate it’s a lovely sweeping pass out to rashford raka coming on inside rashford going his own way I think was shaping for a shot and then he’s touched he allowed him a pass and there’s Bruno Fernandez almost putting his trademark on this semi-final off from where arm sat I thought that was going to Ripple the net lovely dip that he’s not far away maybe a foot but he gets the ability to curl the ball but with that dip as well look how much that’s dipping underneath the crossbar lovely effort from him Thomas trying to get Coventry an action bypass though hair actually was fouled so this kind BL are going to get a free kick [Applause] here here’s right mid’s gone ahead of him ohare Sims it’s Ben Chief again oh that was risky maybe it was further away from hland than it looks from our I think he wanted more height he wanted more height on the pass it was quite flat Canik now really is a a right sided attacking player right sided offensive Midfield player if you like ahead of natti boder they’re attacking towards this sky blue half of the stadium as well maybe the supporters can just raised the tempo in here a little bit it’s a tidy play from Manchester United be a bit more than that if they keep going asford is wrestle to the ground kief there’s a lot more responsibility for sheath now and eckl’s in the Midfield to get out with the fullbacks and help them a little bit too much here from sheath just using his upper body and rashford goes down but you’re going to have to accept these 1 V one situations and you’re going to get exploited a little bit from From com’s perspective but got that opportunity of getting forward they’re desperately searching for a goal the the new men at the helm s rff would love to been in position for just a matter of weeks really officially they could end the season not just by winning FA Cup by beating Manchester City in the final that would be some step forward but that’s uh for another day they’re still not in the final but they’re set fair should we say and here goes Bruno [Applause] Fernandez trying to tea up rashford Marcus rashford has scored here at Wembley for United in a league Cup Final against Newcastle last season and he scored in the Premier League when Spurs were of course renting the place he’s never scored in the famous stadium in NF cup time he’s had quite a few opportunities this his eighth FA Cup tie here semi-finals and finals and he’s been in the squad for a long time now surprising isn’t it is a surprising there a fair few games for him in on big occasions as well he still got a bit to do you feel to be in England squad to go to to European Championship Finals competition that’s closing in on us fast now nicely done by the allpurpose momino gacho doo rolls it past kitching Fernandez early trying to get rashford coming in at the back post mayuk studiously passing it out to Dall airo actually getting ahead of the ball for a [Applause] moment fantastic career he’s had he knows how to manage big games should we say I remember watching him here in a league Cup Final think last season actually it was last SE against Newcastle that’s right and and they just saw the game through really well he was where he needed to be it wasn’t you know a flashy performance but any little loose ball in the Midfield he played Midfield that day it was a really you know well-managed performance and a big occasion and he certainly got that in him I just not of given the ball away here and ohare trying to make something of it and it wasn’t an easy ball just strike as it broke for Ben [Applause] Chief we’ll get to the stage where these need to fly in the top corner it’s a tough one to hit isn’t it couldn’t quite get his hips and his body Square onto it so he’s always going to drag that along along to the left hand side yeah spinning ball in a bad body position and you where the ball is been retrieved from exactly rather slowly for Country fans liking by [Music] Anana referees have been pretty hot T goalkeepers this season taking their time that is pretty ridiculous though he’s having a stroll over to the ball it’s a Sund de well Rob Jones was indicating that he was adding time on for this which of course is one way of dealing with it but the message from the top refering organization PGM Mo was we’re not going to allow this we’re going to actually brandish the cars and goalkeepers might actually if they do it twice find themselves red carded well that should have been a word shouldn’t it yeah that was a that was a conversation of don’t do that [Applause] again he done by Thomas D press by Bidwell Fernandez with a a shriek we heard up here but an Nao wants to drive on commentary can play on the referees having nothing to do with antics of Fernandez he’s back on his feet and recognizes he’s got to get back into position obviously wasn’t as bad as it sounded [Applause] no fakier ech good well it’s a decent ball there a touch by Waka not a foul by Wan basaka no good defensive position but far far better from centry this is the kind of pressure you want to see the ball wild get the ball in the Box it’s a nice delivery he’s actually the wrong side there Juan basaka does well to get his foot up and make contact with the ball because he could have got caught out ball back for Manchester United even gacho is being summoned just to pick up on the edge of the penalty area it’s a decent delivery too comes out to sheath still plenty of sky blue in the middle can’t deliver the kind of cross that they needed now comes Bruno Fernandez well he went for the more difficult class and uh want two to his left two in fact rashford and holand who are very disappointed he he had the blinkers on Bruno then yeah I’m not sure he saw them on his left hand side they were probably a little bit behind him or maybe level I don’t think he caught him out the side of his eye tried a really high tariff pass with the outside of the boot threading it through the eye of a needle that wasn’t there Maguire got to it needed a loud shout from those two to the left of Bruno Fernandez as loud as the squeal we heard from the player himself but it is better from centry the shape looks more natural to them they look more comfortable I mean I just think LTI boder was was in the way in between the two center backs just getting in the way with it’s not how they set up it’s not how they play it’s an unusual formation from them which can be more confusing even though you’ve got the extra man back there if you’re not used to playing it can be more confusing than than having the normal system good interception by EOS but Bruno Fernandez didn’t give up on it and got a the contact and the ball broke his way rashford one thing centry must have said at half time we’ve got to get the next goal to have a chance we can’t concede the next goal that will be the end of the ambition but getting it is still on I mean they’re still in with a shout aren’t they I think having started the second half the manner that they have it’s a far better better game as well it’s it’s more evenly balanced the most of the game is in the middle third of the pitch so as opposed to just sat deep and having Manchester United cting your half for for half an hour or so and barely touching the ball obiously a change of foot ad Vash is Mark Robin’s right hand man to fill in the forms to get the uh the subs on [Applause] like by Eckles interesting I have got one or two players who’ve not been in full training recently so maybe there’ll be some stamina here from the championship side right awkward one to control but he has controlled [Applause] it right again switch a play to videll scored recently to Southampton gacho has brush Chief aside and it’s four against four at the moment refre trying to make sure it’s not five against [Applause] for rashford seem to change his mind it gets to Bruno Fernandez and it’s headed up in the back of the net and that could be curtains for centry [Applause] 3-0 when the big games come around Bruno Fernandez is usually at the heart of the matter gold for Manchester United oh Bruno Fernandez finishing off the move but little bit fortunate I feel how the ball’s gone in the back of the net they had numbers there rashford on the outside the ball kind of spins into Fernandez he has a shot with his left foot I think there’s a bit of a cheeky deflection just lifts it over Collins as it goes into that near post area they’ve been taking a chance commentry which you do like but just there look Wicked deflection off the heel wasn’t it and then Collins has got no time to react into that near poost area really fortunate finish from Bruno Fernandez but it’s really put this game to bed he knows it y it went off I think Bobby [Applause] Thomas and all those hopes youngster at least will have plenty of years of following the team hoping for a better Fair they’ve done brilliantly comry to get for this semi-final it it’s Bruno’s goal it was on target yeah they’re always going to run the risk of having to deal with these waves of attacks and being outnumbered and you know that’s fair enough they’ve coped really well in fact in that sense and they’re a little bit unlucky aren’t they with that finish it was really fortunate for Fernandez there’s ovik not giving out the fight it’s a corner bid well across to try and produce an even better delivery it was a decent one just a couple of minutes ago but it was 2-0 then [Applause] a happy hour has passed for Manchester [Applause] United Whi on it again it was a bit of a reach and chief with three substitutes coming [Applause] on three and one by the looks of [Applause] it here’s got gacho this goes Thomas by Bruno Fernandez laka almost finding himself in a central striking position as’s a pullback for a foul and might just hold the substitutions till after this free kick is dealt with [Applause] a dose of reality around wemy Stadium yeah it’s kind a little bit flat in that blue end doesn’t it here’s casemiro trying to set up another one and it could have been for Harry MaGuire on the lunge a disappointing thing for comments is that have come and stuck a little bit on the set plays is’s a really good run on the overlap from casemiro great header back across garnacho unmarked on the penalty spot and could have ended up with another goal number two [Applause] L2 is on at the back numberz pitching off and replacing number 28 who is number 29 has to whisper it around centry this week but he’s a Manchester United [Applause] fan and also on is the Dane Victor torp in [Applause] Midfield only signed in January quite good to get to Wembley within a couple of months of coming into English football gets the sample the wemble pitch s little Dart forward by Calo tarez up with himz again have got a couple of fa Cup goals against Maidstone [Applause] United thinks is quite an interesting character he’s on loan from bologna oh is that going to challenge Anana made it a bit awkward for him extricating him himself from the net but the ball didn’t go in there there’s a nasty deflection these can just diff into the goal sometimes off of Juan basaka and Anna scrambling a little bit to his near [Applause] post [Applause] it’s Bidwell mire meets it and thato trying to run it out shot was from TP who scored on his debut from about that kind of distance gacho we think he’s going to be replaced but he’s still full of running here unable to pick out the two that were running parallel to him get to the middle boand and [Applause] rashford substitution Forester United Alejandra the number is up and uh I think the wise thing to do is not to yeah query it too much maybe he’s just looking with the sunlight down there might not been he was in the sunny part of the pit sun was in his eyes which is why he squinted like that I think so yes yeah and Anthony another one who’s made the game after injury problems came on as a substitude of course in that 4-3 we keep referring back to that against Liverpool but it was a wonderful way to get to Wembley the man who scored the winning goal and Dio is amongst the substitutes strangely although he was sent off in that game he his substitution has been served in the league matches whereas Casey Parmer comes it with a second yellow card two FA Cup yellow cards the red cards aren’t dealt with the same way that is bizarre it does seem a bit unfair doesn’t it how can you have that difference in the ruing just doesn’t make sense does it you remember scored the winner having been booked and then and then took his shirt took shirt off here what a game that was it certainly was and this Grand competition some fundamental changes announced which have caused some debate in this country over the last couple of days but it still fully deserves its place in the prominence of English football and particularly around the world it’s much loved and rightly so holand a bit of pressure on him from Binks tarez here’s ohare still trying to impose his perky style of football on the match [Applause] torp Manch United have a bit of Defending to do tarez vanvik well that’s a good effort that was Keith Hain it was the 2024 version but not quite as successful from Mo here no no but good work on that right hand side he’s been quite good tarz since coming on overlap fullback with the right footed cross very hard to keep it down in terms of you’re so far in advance of the near post hitting the target is tricky but just not enough from comentry in that sense in this game I haven’t really tested Manchester United as I thought they would you’re always going to have those vulnerabilities at the back against the United attacking front line but not really asked the big question of Maguire and casemiro enough Sir Trevor Brooking scorer of a winning goal in an FA Cup Final with a diving header [Applause] yeah West Ham with the last side from outside the top division to win the FA Cup 1980 against Arsenal before Matt abson joined Arsenal I have to say just a bit Mar not even close was it no not even close but is accurate they beat Arsenal and you played for Arsenal so forgive me for that would have been asked as youngest ever signing at one maybe these days I’m not so sure sign him up early don’t they [Applause] do cover a Tre allz has got into the game he quite rightly spotted that that SP out and the pointing is for a goal kick some of the country fans thought for a penalty ohare again dangerous in the Box well Maguire does what he does in this situation he doesn’t get there with his footwork but he leans that big upper body straight in and it’s very hard to stay on your feet for oare not quite got the body strength with the weight of Harry Maguire’s frame against him and just eases him out of that situation yeah you would stick up for defenders in those situations because you did it a million times but I mean that’s that’s a shove without playing the ball isn’t it well he’s he’s a lot it’s holding his ground though Martin do you know what I mean yeah and I think if he gets enough of his upper body if he’s just using the arm and the arms outstretched I think it does look and feel different but it was his whole upper body more defending to be done here and it’s swept in by Sims so comry do get a goal and Ellis Sims with 20 minutes left Mark Robbins a great goal scorer himself as a player has brought one here to the Sky Blues the former Everton man has a good finish great finish and it’s that right hand side again for centry it’s been a problem for Manchester United since tarez has come on he’s really featuring is his delivery into the box it bounces I mean it’s really poor defending casemiro hasn’t got across at all Harry MaGuire is out of position look at the space he has there to to tap that in but nonetheless Martin that is a tricky finish he’s off the shin actually because the ball’s really spun up look at that where it hits him right on the shin pad he’s not complaining and that still for me is a really good improvisation of the Finish but far too much space in the Manchester United box well their top scorer in the competition has brought a little bit of Hope pushing Erikson has come on for Manchester United Mark Robbins change of formation to start with and then the substitutions it’s it’s miles better for me it’s just a shame he didn’t start the game with that but you know they needed that goal before the third of United’s went in at 2-1 then you got a nice interesting game on your hands but still enough of a buffer for Manchester United to feel comfortable Erikson hasn’t played much Maguire hasn’t played much recently tomin is only just back from injury and they are attacking the end that’s all sky blue but Bradley Collins to sweep that up Now’s the Time dust yourself down yeah go for it don’t die wondering no yeah you might get beat 5-1 yeah they’ve got to set about them in terms of physical they’ve raised the anti haven’t they with their shots comry and he’s a handful deemed I think probably Everton had to sell him because of the uh problems they’ve had with the financial regulations with profit and sustainability he’s come through the rank so it’s all profit had a good spill on loan at sundland and the one or two of the Manchester United back room staff saying well armad Dio was there at Sun with him last season he’s been briefing Manchester United on ell Sim’s strength there’s an example of what he can do yes it was a Sher but to control it into that bottom area takes a lot of SC it doesn’t matter to me where it come what body part it comes off of the fact is the technique and the timing was all there it went where he wanted absolutely whether it comes off the shimad off sweet off the laces but here’s Anthony Manchester United tring to restore little bit of order here rashford can’t get around the outside be careful they don’t foul him here he gets his cross in well held by Collins wants to get it out quickly yeah Maguire a difficult pass actually from Bruno Fernandez yeah was off the ground bouncer wouldn’t it he did it well enough he’s a good technician though isn’t he there’s elements about his game that are really exceptional and usually he ball striking is right up [Applause] there yes and Portugal have had a say in those semi-finals haven’t they Bernardo Silva and Bruno Fernandez they look as though they will meet again here towards the end of mate here is [Applause] Anthony Erikson for whom to see him on the football field still makes one wide-eyed with astonishment after what he went through in the European Championship takes a lot of Courage doesn’t it and Love of the Game absolutely I mean and the whole story of you know going to brenford and Performing the way he performed to then get himself in a situation where he’s get signed by a couple at Manchester United is pretty incredible isn’t it I was talking to Yan mby one of Denmark’s greatest players before the game he was hoping to see Christian play he’s had holand and torp now on as well there’s the journey from his home in England and great great company and was a exceptional [Applause] player here’s [Applause] Momin Anthony not quite read the pass the hard bit here for commentary is just raising that level again Manchester United trying to kill the Game knocking the ball around not really having much purpose but just trying to slow it down can centry raise that level balls like this into the channel and forcing Manchester United’s hand a little bit Sims has now done the 321 three in the fifth round two in the quarterfinal and one in the semi he might not be finished yet rashford possibly offside yeah definitely offside yeah we got to play quickly com Tre well there’s still time because this is the FA Cup which almost has the Monopoly on shocks because it pits teams from different divisions together in the most intriguing [Applause] way is bins is from Kent is great ball jilling him his first club and would have been pleased with that from him his M used to work may still work in the ticket office at the priestfield stadium there a super l pass Cross Field shame Tavarez could bring it under [Applause] control here’s Anthony com Tre on the back foot again Anthony loves to do that come inside he’s not the only player in the world who fances himself coming from the from the right onto the left foot here goes Ellis Sims and here go centry in pursuit of a moment that would give us a rattling good climax ohare deflected it is 3-2 and we have got that climax he’s the cheerleader and the goal scorer this is the FA Cup in case you hadn’t realized W can It Happen scor by number yes the answer it can can it happen can comentry get back level in this game you need a little bit of luck Manchester United had it with the Bruno Fernandez goal fortunate deflection this one obviously a huge deflection but the the point is they got into a situation where they had the opportunity to get that shot off Sims really good holdup play plays it into a heart and all of a sudden the ball spins up off waka’s back Onana absolutely no chance no chance whatsoever oh her with the strike and that’s in the back of the net what a final 10 minutes we set up for and there’s another change Jada Silva’s come on the centry diminutive figure another one through the Chelsea ranks Casey Palmer and Collins the goalkeeper Sky High Sky Blues at the moment but they need more it’s got a few off their seat isn’t it including you and me it was here goes Hai right need numbers in the Box tarz was trying to get there Waka snabs it away just needed a little bit more angle on the cut back it was a little bit too flat from right needed to go towards the penalty spot a little bit more well sweet on sight right now still 10 minutes P stoppage time it’s plenty of time isn’t there a man who uh I think it’s a football myth because they said Alec Ferguson wouldn’t have lost his job Mark Robbins stopped them having a harrowing defeat at well he won the game the third round tight Nottingham Forest Ferg been there a while no trophies but that started a run that led to Mark Robbins winning the FA Cup at Manchester United winning the FA Cup and Alec Ferguson winning his first trophy more to come so he has history and his team are trying to make something very special happen in this semi-final [Applause] that’s the difference between Premier League Pace yeah and Championship Pace that is better seen at twicken him that challenge isn’t it yeah arms around the way good rugby tackle that from behind no you’re not going to get past him he is a dynamic runner though holand he’s got plenty of power Thomas Thomas gets booked for your thoughts body language has changed a little bit hasn’t it yeah it’s not a comfortable chat anymore Manchester United that probably thought he’d inherited but yeah they’re still in the lead they’ve got Bruno Fernandez on a free kick and A little nudge from a player on either side might find the ball on the back of the net but it’s h not a nudge it’s a solid defensive header from Hai Wright do Manchester United try and push forwards and score again or play or or are they just thinking here defensively do we just want to be safe and not concede well they’ve got pretty much everybody forward there a ring ring fence in the penalty area and a few in and around Bradley Collins he’s more outside the box Ericson takes out by Wright tarez is actually ahead of the play I think switch the ball to him but it’s the Silva fresh legs here’s tarez and here’s the Silva Sims and riter in the middle squirts behind off Harry MaGuire it’s rocking at that end are Manchester United rocking defensively right this is nervy stuff going on here they do not look comfortable when the balls wide Manchester United it’s a fair bit of pushing and shoving in there and Love Jones the referee take a couple of players from both sides to task this will be a retake will it wasn’t the best of deliveries was it it was too long and too near the back post and too high got another off opportunity to put one in it’s Victor torp to take it it’s a real challenge for Anana and the Manchester United at the back I think they thought they’ escaped withow had a going uh aw a commentary player but it’s not robs his side that have the throw they’re going for the back post there cometry that that Ball’s got will go right in the mixer for me just plenty of whip and thp or make it awkward to get a clearing header M throws it long Ohan not once but twice oh selling shot from torp and a marvelous save from Anana well apart from the goals that’s the moment of the match wow what a hit from torp I mean this is absolutely Ely Sensational technique power straight at Onana but look at the hit I mean that is as sweet as it gets what a strike [Applause] torpedo he must have seen a foul there is your yellow card for time wased Martin some would say about time yeah I mean it’s it’s blatant isn’t it well had that gone in for 33 we’d be scanning our own personal memories of Cup games anything to match this I mean I mean I’d written it off Mar it 3-0 it was was over wasn’t it it was I mean it was a strike worthy of an equalizer that’s for [Applause] sure of course it was 33 when Mark Robbins came on a sub in the FA Cup F against Crystal Palace here in 1990 it went to a replay in which he didn’t feature it was a substitute not used and they won one nil that 33 in Mark Robins life might have happened when he was uh not on Manchester United side as today two goals after 90 minutes in the previous round yeah they’ve got for yeah previous yeah recent [Applause] previous D com of awoken and maybe in time first half which culminated really their sense of disappointment with magu making it 2-n a sense of underachievement from what they’ve done to get to the semi-final they rolled up their sleeves and really shown up for the second half they’ve shown their personality and character the formation has been for me miles better they had much more freedom to play and here they are again right tar coming in at the back post tomin had height advantage on oare by a fair bit here again the she scraped away rather by Manchester United who suddenly looking somewhat weary and somewhat perplexed how’s it gone wrong but they still lead the Silva’s looking bright on this left hand side as well looking comfortable going forward with the ball ohare pop it in what have they gotten the Counterattack hland hasn’t seen so much of the ball Fernandez going on rashford can take over Fernandez again there an overload at the back post hland wanted far too long has he not hid it imagine how he’ll feel if this leads to something here Anana decides to I’ll just give it back is opposing number to uh cry the full pirouette wasn’t required didn’t need it just hit it you’re that close middle of the goal just hit it you want that moment to haunt you would you3 672 8672 fastic torp it’s deflected off Hai wght I think they are carving Manchester United up on the flanks at the moment ball into the box hits his own player on the floor there yeah spins up in the air but could it have been going in possibly yeah but again they they’re getting down the side so comfortably and and the weaknesses that we’ve spoken about of Manchester United in terms of the defensive partnership and not being that solid as a back four unit is now starting to really get exposed it’s been a poor finish to the game for them hasn’t it well let’s emphasized the believe it or not the lack of numbers they they’ve got uh five or six on the bench who they don’t want to use well four or five now here’s Maguire van Baka toana just feel there’s still time for Coventry Sims in particular he trying to find his a great partner this season had you right minutes of additional time will be played six minutes for a sixth goal in the game and it could come at the other end the tackle really well Ed tackle had to get that right sh here’s tarez still going Sims was right and he probably would have been offside but rght was in a better position yeah just didn’t make his run quick enough wasn’t sharp enough was bright enough to get across the face of darlo he’s got to really gamble not be hesitant you know you not got time for that just get across the face of the defender the ball comes in you’re there rashford may be just making the most of this was a really well-timed tackle then sheath gets up and plays a brilliant forward pass but I think rashford knows that breaking the game up a little bit here might be the sensible thing to do there’s that opportunity again on the flanks in behind Juan basaka this is the movement it’s too slow for right to get across he’s in that danger area is where he needs to be yeah he was thinking of the space he needed to be in front of the defender ex exactly don’t pull out in that space get across the front of it as Defenders that is your hardest thing to deal with at that moment well suddenly There’s Hope suddenly visiting Wembley even in defeat will be very memorable but it’s not defeat yet in by oare it’s Erikson who has to steer it away Tor gets it back Cross by right they’re lining up at the far post as a shout for hand ball is a penalty in the 93rd minute hand ball given against Aaron Juan visaka the arm is out Matt hson penalty it’s not going to be overruled Martin the arm is far enough out for the referee to to make that call it is not a clear and obvious error it can be debated all day long and there’ll be different views but that is not a decision that V I believe will overturn because the arm is there it’s in that position is it by side relatively but it’s outstretched a little bit and he’s making himself bigger to stop that ball coming back across the goal I think that’s the key point the silhouette is bigger and not allowing that ball in a really dangerous area to get back across the goal I mean can you believe it it’s incredible stuff here that’s still being reviewed Manchester United having their say it’s a big call for V to get involved it’s an onfield penalty absolutely an onfield penalty which for me Isn’t a clearing and obvious error and it’s a penalty and well I saw Hai wght take one of the worst penalties of the Season at Southampton 10 days or so ago he kicked with his right foot onto his left foot really and of course that was a free kick in the the ball didn’t go in the net so he’s full of Confidence from the spot it’s amazing he’s going to take it and one of the features of it Matt was he waited forever to take it as if he was Mr cool well yeah I mean he’s had a fair wait for this isn’t he yeah he’s had a Fairway in front of the when the ball was on the spot he still waited a long time referee almost had to hurry him up what a moment for Hai Wright at Wembley they were 3-0 down centry City he waits again Wright that’s his style here he goes and scores 33 one of the great semi-final recoveries the spirit if you like of 1987 but this is Mark Robins te now and they are heroes to those fans and rightly so what a contrasted emotions Doug King the owner is on his feet well I just cannot believe we’re in this situation cool as you like from hajir sees Anana going one way Strokes it in the other side and that is the way to celebrate in front of a full half end of sky blue Wembley what a moment for commentary 36,000 of them prayers are answered at that end of the ground there is another point of view of course I think that is the keep pouching header end as well actually isn’t it yes remember right of the other Stadium of the other Stadium sure but well leaving it late when it’s late commentary are great I I just I cannot believe that Manchester United thrown away a three goal lead it’s incredible and it just shows you when commentary turn up and have that freedom and confidence and don’t care what’s going to happen you get a performance out of them I mean they’ve been brilliant in the last half an hour since the substitution have come on they’ve been [Applause] superb here’s vanak and rashford has pulled up Tavarez Sims oh where’s The Supporting Cast not quite there in time and it’s a free kick Fernandez is trying to buy a bit of time here wow wow wow I mean I I haven’t seen man united this vulnerable when the ball’s wide from crosses their feet they just look gone it is the ball’s in that wide area it’s get your head up and pick out who you want in the Box I mean you spoke about the two goals inj he’s done look like a hamstring when he he pulled up maybe a c it’s going from bad to worse isn’t [Applause] it Amo who was the hero of a game that was 33 when he influenced it had Old Trafford the last time Manchester United won again here’s Sims and had to get there and did added time to added time for extra time at Wembley tomin suddenly the odds seem stacked in commentary’s favor yeah well they look the team that’s going to go on to win it don’t they at the moment it’s a complete shift well in this second half they’ve put in a shift that’s for [Applause] sure casemiro I mean the rest of the United Outfield Subs have got about three appearances between [Applause] them here is dio is he going to do it again Bruno Fernandez it’s uh carried out and they certainly recognize the opportunity Manchester United with the numbers they got in the Box yeah I mean Collins does well actually because Bruno Hernandez just wants to fire that ball as hard as he can Pace on it was really immense and he just gets a solid foot on it spins the ball away here’s Maguire rasaku is giving away a penalty and deflected in the goal before that and surely that will be that before the final whistle goes for regulation time and he seared it far enough away there’s the hit wanted to fire that across the book hland in perfect position just to tap that in if Collins doesn’t get the touch on it well he’s done so much to help the uh Club Rise From the Ashes only yes the fan first yeah he’s buzzing and rightly [Applause] so still not the final whistle go the whistle to end regulation period pressure and evik Dio and we do go to extra time one of the most extraordinary second halfes in an FA Cup every find the scene here in the new Wembley and Wright with the penalty remember they’ve lost Marcus rashford to injury here’s Dow andad de there with a chance to perhaps show his pace is again strut his stuff on a big F cup [Applause] stage surely Mart Robins has says something on along as keep keep going as you’ve been doing yeah I mean they’re the side in terms of body Lang Ang and Swagger they’ve got the the confidence haven’t they Manchester United a feeling have just been ran over is hard to come back from that momentum I mean the body language and facial expression is everything you just cast your mind back to that pirouette that swivel that holand have just before could ATT that away and you kind of think well I hope that doesn’t come back to haunt you well certainly has here is J Silva Victor torp two of the substitutes that that as [Applause] mentioned torp again out by amalo stamped forward accurately by casmiro to holand they lean on Bruno again aren’t they on a big occasion he doesn’t look 100% in full working order [Applause] vaka Manchester United got through as we mentioned earlier the semi-final last year on a penalty shootout seven players all scored and then son March was the one who Miss for Brighton Victor Lindelof one of the absentees got the winning penalty [Applause] [Applause] Maguire this unique competition creating an awesome occasion at Wembley Erikson Off the Mark with the pass Maguire comes across and he joined in training with the first team on the grass as the coaches say on [Applause] Friday he’s got to pace himself through this there’s chief good tussling by vanak but he wasn’t fouled Erikson now John by his fellow Countryman holand give it away and Bobby Thomas steps [Applause] in and in the end that Anana had to deal with it tarz wasn’t trying to play it so he couldn’t be off side hland Amad trying to set it up oh Bruno Fernandez rocks the crossbar has been a good hit from outside the penalty area from both teams really torp’s effort and now Bruno Fernandez a whisker away from giving Manchester United the lead but on the Counterattack they might go behind for the first time in this semi-final but had you right runs and runs and runs out of [Applause] room no for Bruno in the end well he nearly gets this spot on doesn’t he I mean what a technician he knows exactly what he wants he’s trying to guide that into that top corner and it’s just a fraction too high rattles off the crossbar and back down but not over the line and then casemiro I mean he looks like his legs are a little bit cooked at the moment struggling to get back and the pace of Doo just helps him out right over running the ball but this is going to have been exciting extra time it really is both teams are a little bit out on their feet aren’t they which leads for lots of interesting situations that three three Mark Robbins when he played for Manchester United in the Cup Final in 1990 did have a replay right okay and of course that’s been the topic hasn’t been final replays for a long time hasn’t been a semi-final replay since the last century that famous game involving Manchester United and Arsenal Ryan gigs is winner at Villa Park that was a replay at the final one and now of course the discussion is our replays for the competition proper not going to count anymore that nearly counted to put them uh back into the lead but it goes to penalties if we haven’t said that too often I apologize but stay with us because whichever way it goes it’s going to be dramatic these a replay a final didn’t they they did which is incredible when you think about it isn’t it there weren’t many of them in truth but were Andy linan I remember scoring W that was a replay 19 yeah I watching a FA Cup Final on a midweek that was a Ricky via the greatest Cup final goal they say was a replay for Spurs against Man [Applause] City but there isn’t room now and I think everybody understands that it’s how you allocate the space it’s only right the final for me is decided on that date yeah certainly the final [Applause] but casemiro at walking pace he’s not going to be the only one when the we get to the 115 minute mark that’s over the top and I think uh Thomas thought he was offside bro Fernandez Bobby Thomas just lost his bearing a little bit there he was surprised by the type of ball it was like kind of just chipped over the top yeah the the flag didn’t go up no the interesting thing about when when you get fatigued everyone ass Associates it with physical fatigue and feeling tired in the legs but the first thing that goes is your decision making you get a little bit tired a little bit lazy with your thought process and making those decisions and awareness and checking your shoulder and all these things just start to drop off that’s when the mistak set in well let’s hope it doesn’t apply to the [Laughter] commentators full on at the moment raise a shot 33 who would have thought it maybe he would have done deep down and I don’t think so we saw him bang the uh part of the Dugout in frustration when Bruno Fernandez goal was deflected in Manchester United that three-goal cushion didn’t turn out to be a very soft cushion though here is [Applause] casmiro Erikson d [Applause] solidly met by Le Binks there’s tarez who’s recovered from that knock Thomas got to be careful he’s lost out and here’s armo three against three in Manchester United pushing other players forward as well they’ve held up the substitute here’s another sub Erikson has a lash at it it breaks cometry his way it’s great defending from Binks the really good good body shaped good position not allowing Dio to get the wrong side of him and just ushering him out into that space that’s been a complete rebuild for Coventry this season on the back of selling a couple of players Gustavo H’s in the Premier League with Sheffield United but maybe not for that much longer Victor jarez is a much admired striker cashed in on fees for them and uh spent their money [Applause] wisely the Rarity for Coventry to have money to spend I mean fees like 7 million for Sims I mean you just don’t see centry spending that kind of money for a long long time get 3 and a half million [Music] [Applause] for oh just pulling up there tarez he doesn’t look too happy I know he’s just had some treatment on the pitch I don’t know if we damaged his ankle in that challenge with Juan [Applause] Baka please stop me from mentioning that tarez hit it only takes a minute it only takes a second to score a goal you didn’t stop me yeah there was a Nuno to ourz who is still um still about isn’t he he alone at Nottingham Forest from Arsenal it’s been mentioned around his [Applause] name it’s a good tune though that’s what my kids tell me to call it a tune was a hit in my day [Applause] they were out of tune in the first half comry City they’ve got the harmony [Applause] now they’ve been a hit in the second half they [Applause] have sheath far away wasn’t deflected that was a Miss but uh the fight back has massive credit to them could have gone off hairs back that would have been in keeping with what happened in the second half of Regulation time well n had it covered but he’s had a really good second half of the game Chief I mean the two Midfield players that started the game Eckles and chief it was incredibly difficult first half they were all out of syn not able to really get a hold of the ball or have much impact but since they’ve gone to that back four you’re starting to see how how well they can play in the middle of the park and not only just with the ball but certainly out of possession be difficult to play against P Chief got on the pitch once for Arsenal in a Europa League game against Red Star [Applause] Belgrade momy down on the floor just sat on the floor there he’s not too comfortable at the moment already he lost Marcus rashford it is time to call up the kids may have to they’re going to he has had the taste of the first team Amari forson 19 he’s an attacker wide he’s the most experienced of the is a 16year old amongst them he’s drifted over to this right hand side in front of Doo Anthony Reas being comfortable in that position I think Anthony on the left hand side [Applause] Chief you never thought you’d even think about it but could Manchester United be playing for penalties well may well be in there thinking I think at the moment way they too much too much game time isn’t it for that there’s plenty of time but the second or the first half of this extra time has been quite calm actually there’s not really been too much incident we’re nearly there aren’t we to half time there is Chief torp the Sila not been in front commentary right trying to change [Applause] that kept in by put to Manchester United’s Advantage holand United throw great cheers about the challenge a great tackle from Thomas wins the ball wipes out the player might wiped out himself a little bit there was just a touch of cramp understandable came through the ranks at [Applause] [Applause] Burnley many of his comary Squad it’s the biggest game of their careers and if Manchester United thought well it’ll just be another semi-final they forgot which competition it was in but here’s Bruno Fernandez has rattled the bar forson Corner yeah he forced to save out of Collins he wasn’t too sure whether or not he was going to sneak inside that near post and you’re better off being safe than sorry an awkward looking shot isn’t it a real bit of diff on it it probably was going he was but I just done he wanted to take the chance well Maguire of course seeming a long time ago headed in a corner to make it [Applause] 2-n that was a real connect from Anthony foron F high now they are on the verge of greatness cry City here he’s good defending from toor he knew he was going to get kicked somewhere on his body but willing to put his head in there for his team at the [Applause] moment well it’s all the elements of football this isn’t it now fatigue concentration obious ability tactics everything you want a situation that could not be better poised in a better Palace of the stadium Erikson Tavarez has to go off that’s a shame yeah big shame 32-year-old Matt Goden who several years with scan United various loans bought from Peter Brook he is a striker and he scored two goals in in the third round went over Oxford United that was a big hit as well 62 yeah they had some high scoring games haven’t they and we said they said 19 and got 22 now that was that the stat of Hope for centry yeah well we’re still 15 minutes away from really being coming down to the wire but we’re ever edging closer to it memorable at [Applause] Wembley happy that that sailed through to the goalkeeper a little bit of a nervous look wasn’t they on his face that not going to get the flight of that but it was far too deep and flat God’s going to play through the middle Sims on the right and he right on the left ohare and that off the front position Erikson here’s foren [Applause] hmer to go [Applause] back two goals for Manchester United in the first half one relatively early in the second half built a rock of a platform that rock was then chipped away at and then disintegrated the fight back started by ell Sims who’s having to do a bit of chasing back here as Maguire plows on he’s still going Harry MaGuire the ball hasn’t gone out and Maguire can do something here what he was trying to do I think the angle was pretty much against him yeah it was tight wasn’t it just muscles his way through here and then that angle there is a touch from The Keeper isn’t there it’s a decent save actually from Collins whether or not that would have drifted into the far post but he got a significant swipe of a glove on the ball that just tipped It Wide well they look for Harry MaGuire again surely at this corner it’s taken by Erikson comes back to Anthony alad Ericson plays it in with pace and it Nick behind for a corner that’s a lot of heavy breathing in the middle attackers hands on hips teapot situations ready to try and find some elevation ohare he just booted one forward earlier in the game this time he had the confidence to run with it yeah ski between two Manchester United players does well actually because he then gets the tackle and goes out of play and just relieves the pressure a little bit centry now looking at it thinking if we can see this to penalties what a win that is for them to have that opportunity to take on a Manchester United Team in a penalty shootout just the review there isn’t there of an arm in the Box comes up there I mean there’s nothing from that from Thomas for me just trying to head the balln it glances off the shoulder it doesn’t frustrate me when things like that are looked at through the banks and mentioned him actually V having a decent time with it he is the V man Premier League referee of course and they it’s so absorbing for everyone watching it so tiring for everyone playing the emotion of it all O’s been there from the start trying to win it himself he’s on side he’s in his own half it’s God Sims is coming up with him but God’s a goal scorer and he was looking to score a goal well for me he’s got to try and face up casemiro there he takes the shot so early God and I know he’s just come on really good run bended it in from that that half he’s in his half when the ball is played you’re right but then here for me casemiro you’ve got to face him up and take him on come inside tries to kind to clip it B the ball through but casemiro is always blocking that with his [Applause] body comry Corner can they possibly get in front for the very first time it’s a very deep one towards Thomas a bit too deep andalo Erikson surely he suggested one of the penalty takers if it gets that far of course is she seems he onside played onside by adalo still Ellis Sims oh there was no one there there were others to cut it back to a bit like Jada Silva is going to get booked for that could have maybe gone on his own there as well SS to come inside onto the left either fire something across the goal or have an effort on goal yourself just a bit late there from Sims on [Applause] Anthony Jada Silva shall I say with the yellow card [Applause] Erikson Manchester United’s turn to get players forward from Dall pass Dow again Fernandez it’s a clever ball for doow come back by Anthony kept by Anthony Brun Fernandez oo payak of a challenge and the ball was got and play on says referee Rob Jones and comry only too willing to do that ohare Hai wres in here the comentry oh well would have been I think Mayhem if that had gone in because of what happened on the edge of the other penalty area oh my goodness I mean Tau me through van evik in that move what a tack there crunching Challenge from Bings superbly timed and they set it up really well this first touch the ball’s a tiny fraction behind right there the weight of the pass isn’t quite enough and he has to slow down so he gets it onto his left foot and I never really fancy Martin from that point he just drags it across that far post but lovely sweeping attack the energy that commentary shown there they call you a weaker foot the swinger and that was a swing wasn’t it it was a swinger but the pass through to him just needed to be a couple of yards in front of him with a bit more Pace on it I think he could have maybe took it inside the pitch and then you really do open up either corner of the goal lovely sweeping [Applause] attack casemiro Anthony Maguire he want wanted somebody to move in Midfield but moving is a bit of a problem for pretty much everybody out there except those have only just come [Applause] on it’s nicely done by Maguire H’s come alive God done brilliantly Sims can they keep it going centry there might be gaps to exploit here Ellis Sims oh he couldn’t get it back anony a lot of players forward for United this time Dio Thon young boys typical Manchester United way to get youth when they need it anony Dio set it too wide I what more are we going to say about this game it’s really opened up in this second half this one Dio never really looking like he’s going to hit the target but the game two in and throwing at the moment well we know what they’re wishing for there’s Midland’s Pride here against the might of Manchester whatever happens Mark Robbins has added to his managerial reputation I do feel there’s certain English coaches in that particular envelope we’re only going to get into the Premier League if they take a team there here’s right can Sims pivot here he can oh flick back by aare into the side netting well Bruno Fernandez almost the same part of the goal and ell Sims locates it I mean that’s incredible really good play from Ericson to stop the initial shot but then the hit on the turn from Sims is a big appeal that the ball’s gone over the line but I don’t think it has as it hits the crossbar spins down and it’s probably about a foot short of going over the line but great hit from [Applause] Sims here’s Anthony no one’s thinking about penalties at the moment unless Anthony can win one within extra time hand ball forson just got underneath it got the the power they did look hand ball on the control before that have been a an interesting one if this this had hit the back of the net nice strike really cleanly hit but just always Rising another look at that one how close it is to go over the line maybe a slight touch from Onana the ball spins away off the crossbar they’re watching it from a long way away yeah it looked over to them yeah well he’s lived up to the billing hasn’t he ell Sims yes he has wins the header ohir bustling around Bruno Fernandez who hooks it accurately actually that’s luckily towards Anthony but United lose grip on the ball they certainly lost a grip on the game Sims here’s [Music] Maguire is anyone out there going to make themselves a legend it’s a word that’s overused but if you get the winning goal in this game it’s legendary status for sure [Applause] hland Maguire underneath it Erikson [Applause] nice movement from Amari foron he’s still going Bruno Fernandez doesn’t want to try the [Applause] Shoto doesn’t want to try the [Applause] shot in by Fernand Maguire there Sims is back defending but it only drops for Erikson still possibilities for Manchester United here still W would have been a sensational dis Anthony his left foot’s capable but very difficult on the swivel [Applause] Bradley Collins might be fancing being the hero of the P Suter not in a great Rush is he he’s doing an Anana yes without the [Applause] booking a pretty decent dead ball kick as well hadie wght couldn’t make contact with it what’s the board going to show in other words how long are we away from ptis so Qui has it gone out it hasn’t was sure he couldn’t piig it up Erikson Maguire down by torp so uh heading towards finding out officially how much time there is to the extra half an out he’s Maguire a catchweight contest with an and he’s given it away he deserves better than that if that leads to a goal here he played superbly the Dutchman the Silva was nippy and here’s right will be well we’re nearly done as far as the Orthodox football is concerned but there’s still time for centry with oare and Hai Wright the flag is saved down here this is going to be Sensational it is it’s Tor with the touch that means delirium for cry setting virtually the last kick from 3-0 down to 43 up disbelief I can’t believe it they’re on the wrong end of it Eric tenh hard’s got to live with it 29 Victor the Great Dane of Coventry the new Dane arrived in January I mean look at that position of Aaron Wanaka on there he’s so deep he’s the one playing right on the hold of the Manchester United back for field that it’s offside but how he gets his head up there picks out the pass and lovely finish from torp just gets enough of a steer on the ball with the inep of his right boot to guide that into the bottom corner and I cannot believe the football match I’m witnessing here what an incredible game this has what a privilege it’s been to be here and what a win this is going to be for centry City I think we are waiting on the check for offside I mean it does look tight but wak is so deep isn’t he this is this is lines being drawn as we speak this just adds to the drama I mean it’s hard to tell from that angle isn’t it it’s I must say my first instinct was that it could be offside when Wright got the [Applause] ball what a big call perhaps the biggest call of the has had to make oh it’s no goal it’s no goal it’s offside look how tight that is and Victor talk has one of the moments of FA Cup history ruled out goodness me we are going to go to [Applause] penalties well there could be something else to happen here because Manchester United have got a corner and there could be a deciding goal at the other end of the pitch how cruel would that be I mean can anything else happen in this game it’s been packed with action isn’t [Applause] it now they’re holding their breath they were punching the air only seconds earlier United’s Corner they’ve scored from one at this end of the stadium to get the lead and it’s smuggled away far enough and we do go to penalties well Victory snatched from centry by the technology of all the emotions that are running through the players on your screens I would say probably the calmest man is casmiro doesn’t look too stressed about it does he no so if you like Champions League against championship and he’s missed it save it was an attempt to penker it and Collins kept it out first Blood to centry City well he looked relaxed and the penalty was relaxed and I’m not too sure at all what he’s thinking yes it was a pinka but it was pretty low and he was a little bit to the side anyway Really Brave bold move from Colin to read it shocking start for Manchester [Applause] United T now Anana needs to try and read this penalty a bit better than the one that he was beaten by in the course of the game Hai right that little Shuffle to the left is he going to do the same thing again there it is and here it goes and he blasts it in Lana going that side where he slotted it last time but he Powers it into the corner really good penalty [Applause] actually I must have caught him on a bad night at Southampton I think so from what Upson he’s been cool has in front the goal from the penalty spot Martin well I did mention that Diego Dow took one in the semi-final shootout against Brighton it was at the other end of the stadium actually but he scored and he steps up again and steps forward again and drives it it a bit like Magi Wright’s technique and they’re on the board Manchester United a solid pen no fuss nothing fancy nothing special step up to it good run up and bury it in the corner nice and [Applause] [Applause] low that’s the guy who had the goal this allowed Victor torp [Applause] [Music] [Applause] there’s to put commentary back in [Music] front and he does pick that one out well since coming on he’s been brilliant talk he had an amazing hit in the second half on the volley and this strike here is as clean as you like look at that for a penalty wow in the corner nice and High super strike it’s a much more experienced Dane who comes forward for Manchester United again not a player unused to this kind of pressure should we say Brad Collins plays the guessing game tries to read intention of Christian Erikson who does the job with a minimum of fuss I must say yeah Collins waiting again in the middle of the goal almost thinking perhaps he’s going to go straight I’ll just stay big and not really commit but he would have had to commit to have saved that one lovely penalty in the corner up comes C moare who plays with bravado [Applause] and makes the walk from the halfway line with an air of confidence that’s showing that is one thing delivering with it is uh another matter all together ohare for centry and Anana saves it so we’re one failure a piece now athletic the United goalkeeper that’s a great save I’m not sure hair does too much wrong he just anticipates it Anana it’s a decent height but he really does get across early and quickly made the save look comfortable but it was really sharp goalkeeping well just a reminder that Manchester United have plenty of big guns still on the pitch casmiro and Erics and D of course as well International player and Bruno Fernandez now who so rarely fails from the penalty spot and makes it look ridiculously easy well that is how to stroke one home looking casual but very very accurate good power as [Applause] well always looked comfortable to score didn’t he he knows Bruno Fernandez in those situations he’s ice [Applause] cold now Anana of course the yellow card’s in the shootout he’s already got one in the match but we saw that with Emmy Martinez in the week so it’s Ben Chief oh he’s missed it sorry for him a kick to win it wow the pressure is just built on the last two penalties and sheath doesn’t get his upper body over the ball enough look of Despair after the strike he strikes it cleanly but just leaning back a fraction eases the ball over the crossbar well this is going to go down well in Denmark isn’t it because torf had the goal disallowed Erikson’s taken a penalty and now Hyland’s going to take one Dorp of course scored his as well but that looks in vain now Rasmus holand to put Manchester United into fining now I think Collins has got a yellow card as [Applause] well this can win it and it does and United will play City it’s a Manchester FA Cup Final again for the second season in a row but they’ve had to do it the hard way some would say they’ve been a bit fortunate to do it the way it’s happened the technology which is part of the game we have to accept that stopped Eric tenh hard’s team from being beaten with the very last Touch of extra time but the shootout now has gone Manchester United’s way after a wonderful game United win 4-2 on penalties after the 33 draw

Dusgusting offside decision.
Whatever happened to the principle of giving the 'benefit of the doubt' when things were otherwise evenly balanced? What about the technical margin of error involved in the VAR computers drawing that line? What they present to us is not a picture of reality, but their picture made from their calculations, which have to involve a small but calculable error. Hence that age-old principle of the benefit of the doubt.
But logic is out of fashion these days.
Coventry robbed ffs
Whose here after the FA cup win
