Amad scores last-minute winner as United dump Liverpool out of FA Cup after seven-goal thriller

Amad Diallo struck a last-gasp extra-time winner and was then sent off as Manchester United booked their place in the FA Cup semi-finals following a rollercoaster 4-3 victory over Liverpool at Old Trafford.

Erik ten Hag’s Red Devils were quick out of the traps and deservedly led on 10 minutes when Scott McTominay stabbed home a rebound after Caoimhin Kelleher had parried Alejandro Garnacho’s shot.

McTominay then saw a big chance to extend United’s advantage go begging when he fired straight at Kelleher from 12 yards out before a quick-fire double on the stroke of half-time saw the Merseysiders turn the tie on its head.

First Alexis Mac Allister hammered a deflected shot beyond Andre Onana at his near post and then Mohamed Salah smashed in after the United keeper could only tip Darwin Nunez’s shot into his path.

Liverpool dominated for the majority of the second half but failed to find a third goal and the home side made them pay four minutes from time when substitute Antony turned inside the area and rolled a fine finish into the far corner.

Marcus Rashford then shot wide with the last kick of normal time and Liverpool appeared to make the most of the reprieve when substitute Harvey Elliott rifled a speculative 25-yard shot beyond Onana via a deflection on 105 minutes.

United refused to lie down, however, and Rashford pulled the hosts level eight minutes from the end before another substitute, Amad, won an epic, enthralling cup tie in the last seconds before picking up a second yellow for his wild celebrations.

The Red Devils will now meet Coventry City in the semi final at Wembley.

Talking Point – A huge win for United as Liverpool suffer first blow in push to end Klopp era on a high

Ten Hag talked about this cup clash with high-flying Liverpool as one that could help salvage their season – and possibly be some sort of catalyst to keep him in a job long-term.

It started perfectly for the hosts but then appeared to be swinging out of their clutches as Liverpool twice found themselves in winning positions.

However, United refused to throw in the towel and somehow came out on top in an instant-classic cup tie that will linger long in the memory.

Liverpool will see it as a missed opportunity in the Jurgen Klopp farewell tour, but they remain in the hunt on three fronts and will now need to go again when they return after the international break, with more key stars set to return from injury.

Player of the match

Amad Diallo (Man United). The second yellow card won’t be what he is remembered for as he came off the bench and helped reinvigorate a United side that looked to heading for the exit. Got his reward for a positive showing with a winner at the expense of The Red Devils’ arch-rivals that will go down in Old Trafford folklore.

105’ – GOAL! – Man United 2-3 Liverpool: (Elliott). Harvey Elliott’s speculative 25-yard effort takes a wicked deflected off Eriksen and flies past Onana into the far corner.

112’ – GOAL! – Man United 3-3 Liverpool: (Rashford). The Red Devils are level again! Liverpool gift it to McTominay who plays in Rashford to slot past Kelleher. What a cup tie!

120+1’ – GOAL! – Man United 4-3 Liverpool: (Diallo). What a way to win it! United break from a Liverpool corner and Garnacho feeds Diallo who manages to squirm a low shot in off the far post.

Key Stats

Manchester United eye Guimaraes with Amrabat linked with Juventus move – Paper Round

Juventus keen on Amrabat

Manchester United’s on-loan midfielder Sofyan Amrabat could be a target for Juventus this summer.

The Sun reports that the Moroccan is a potential replacement for Adrien Rabiot, who may leave at the end of the season.

The paper explains: “Sofyan Amrabat will be offered an escape route following his nightmare loan stint at Manchester United.

“Amrabat, 27, signed for United on an £8.5million loan with £17.2m option to buy last September after a transfer saga that lasted the whole summer.

“Juventus have already qualified for the Club World Cup and look likely to also make next season’s expanded Champions League.

“Central midfielder, Adrien Rabiot, 28, is likely to leave Juve after postponing contract talks until the summer.

“The Bianconeri see Amrabat as a player that could replace the Frenchman but are prioritising Atalanta’s Teun Koopmeiners, 26.”

United eye Newcastle midfielder

The Mirror thinks that one midfielder who could arrive at Old Trafford this summer is Newcastle United’s Bruno Guimaraes.

The Brazilian has a release clause of £100 million and could be a target given the arrival of Dan Ashworth as sporting director is expected soon.

The paper writes: “Manchester United are set to launch a summer move for Newcastle star Bruno Guimaraes as Dan Ashworth prepares to take over as sporting director.

“Ashworth joined Newcastle six months after Guimaraes arrived at St James’ Park, quickly becoming a huge fan of the midfielder. But he is currently on gardening leave as United negotiate a compensation fee so they can hand him the reins at Old Trafford.

“Those talks are expected to be completed soon and it appears Ashworth will launch a raid on his soon-to-be former club. With The Red Devils in need of a major boost to their squad, Guimaraes has emerged as a lead target.

“Ashworth is described as being in ‘love with his game’ and has given his endorsement to making a move for the Newcastle star. But United would have to fork out a fee of £100 million in order to bring him to Old Trafford.”

Neto linked with Arsenal and Tottenham

The Express believes that Arsenal and Tottenham could both attempt to land Wolves winger Pedro Neto.

The player is now injured and could have played his last game for Wolves, who value him at £60 millon.

The paper reports: “In-demand winger Pedro Neto could miss the rest of the season through injury, Wolves boss Gary O’Neil has confirmed. It means the Portuguese may have played his final game for the West Midlands outfit, with Arsenal, Tottenham and several other top sides believed to be eyeing up a summer move.

“Wolves have reportedly slapped a £60 million price tag on Neto, whose haul of nine assists this season leaves him fourth in the Premier League charts. Injuries have become a recurring problem for the 24-year-old, however, and he suffered his second hamstring issue of the campaign against Fulham earlier this month.

“If The Gunners or Spurs have their way, O’Neil may not get Neto back at all. The north London duo are joined by Liverpool and Newcastle United in keeping track of the wide man as the summer transfer window draws nearer.”

Toney speculation continues

Brentford striker Ivan Toney is open to leaving Brentford, with Arsenal and Chelsea potential destinations for the England forward.

The paper states: “Ivan Toney has again spoken about leaving Brentford, hinting at a desire to move abroad.

“The striker is not shy about discussing his future. In January, on the eve of his return after serving an eight-month ban for betting rule breaches, he suggested he could leave The Bees that month.

“The transfer window shut with Toney staying put, but Brentford manager Thomas Frank told Danish media soon after that it is “relatively obvious” that the striker “will probably be sold this summer” after receiving “no offers” in January.

“The likes of Arsenal and Chelsea have been linked with interest, though both clubs are reportedly more keen on other targets as The Bees have slipped an £80 million price on Toney’s head.”
