‘Diallo’s Winning Goal’ Manchester United Wins 4-3 Over Liverpool… FA Cup Semi-Finalist
Manchester United won the ‘Northwest Derby’ against Liverpool after a 7-goal tussle and advanced to the semi-finals of the Football Association (FA) Cup.
Manchester United won 4-3 after a close overtime match against Liverpool in the 2023-2024 FA Cup quarterfinals held at Old Trafford in Manchester, England on the 18th (Korean time).
After Manchester United took the lead with Scott McTominay’s goal in the 10th minute of the first half,
Liverpool came back with consecutive goals from Alexis Marc-Alistair in the 44th minute and Muhammad Salah in the 47th minute.
Manchester United, who were on the verge of defeat, made a comeback in the 42nd minute of the second half when Anthony hit a precise right-footed turning shot into the bottom right corner of the goal with three defenders in front, sending the game into overtime. 온라인카지노
It is a goal that raises expectations of a turnaround for Anthony,
who was embroiled in controversy over his ‘eating and running’ after failing to score a single goal in 22 league games this season.
The ‘thriller’ continued in overtime.
Liverpool’s Harvey Elliott scored in the 15th minute of extra time, seemingly tying the game,
but Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford scored to level the score at 3-3 in the 7th minute of extra time.
The game was decided only in extra time in the second half of extra time.
In the 16th minute of the second half of extra time, during a Manchester United counterattack,
21-year-old rookie Amad Diallo received a pass from Alejandro Garnacho and finished with his left foot,
confirming Manchester United’s advance to the semifinals.
Manchester United, who performed very poorly this season,
finishing in 6th place in the English Professional Football Premier League (EPL),
continued their challenge to win the FA Cup for the first time in 8 years after going through hardships.
The FA Cup is the only trophy that Manchester United can lift this season.
Manchester United will compete with Coventry of the Championship (Second Division),
who defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers, played by Hwang Hee-chan,
to advance to the final on the 20th of next month.
If they win here, they will face off against the winner of the semi-final between Manchester City and Chelsea for the championship trophy.
Liverpool, who failed to return to the FA Cup crown for the first time in two years,
is now in a situation where they have to focus more on winning the EPL, where they are in second place.
