Live from Wembley, “There is a different between playing to win and being hungry to win. i told them we are coming for the cup and that’s what we did today” Erik ten Hag praises players on the performance against Manchester City as they come out victorious in a difficult task to win the FA CUP. Manchester United defeats Manchester City to put them in their place. Man city has been put in their place, the fans are jubilating to this victory🙀🙀🙀

Erik ten Hag dismissed rumors regarding his future by steering Manchester United to a remarkable 2-1 triumph over Premier League champions Manchester City in the FA Cup final at Wembley.

Ahead of the match, speculation arose that United had decided to part ways with Ten Hag, irrespective of the final’s outcome. Nevertheless, if this was to be his farewell, the United players delivered a memorable performance.

Alejandro Garnacho capitalized on a mix-up between Josko Gvardiol and Stefan Ortega to score in the first half, followed by Kobbie Mainoo’s goal, leaving Pep Guardiola’s team stunned. In the second half, Manchester City sought to turn the game around, with Erling Haaland hitting the crossbar and Andre Onana making crucial saves from Kyle Walker’s long shots. Despite Onana’s efforts, substitute Jeremy Doku scored in the 87th minute, making for a tense conclusion.

City supporters were optimistic as seven minutes of stoppage time were added, but it was the United fans who rejoiced at the final whistle, as their team thwarted City’s attempt to achieve consecutive league and FA Cup doubles.

This FA Cup win is United’s second trophy under Ten Hag, following their Carabao Cup victory last season. It also redeems a lackluster league campaign by securing Europa League qualification. However, uncertainty lingers about whether Ten Hag will remain at the helm next season.
