🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - SOON 2024/2025

[Iroh]

Manchester united wasn't favourite for the match, Brighton was master class in the game. They show class and were more organized than Manchester united. Luck run out of them . we're waiting for the super Manchester derby in the FA cup finals. It will be tough for both team, I can't decide who's favourite for the cup. Till the very day of the finals.

Brighton played a lot better then Manchester United in my opinion and if they gave wins based on public opinions, then Brighton would have won the game. They definitely were more organized with their accurate passes as well as having more of the ball in their possession. Unfortunately for them, they couldn’t utilize all that to score a goal so it wouldn’t have gone into penalties.

I’m happy for Manchester United as they’ve qualified yet again to play in the finals of the FA cup. Having won by penalties, some would say they were lucky. I think a win is a win.
Now, they’ve got to seriously prepare themselves to face an elite team in the finals. It would be an interesting game to watch.

Somewhat disappointing that we saw no goals at all in the FA cup match between Brighton and United. There was no score in extra time either, so we will start the penalty kicks in a bit. I think both teams have an equal chance of going through as they both have good players, they are not Brighton amateurs. It might be a disappointment if United are both eliminated in a week in the EL and FA cup. But the final against city would be a nice poster.

ya.ya.yo!

Brighton were very unlucky in the match against Man Utd today they had the better chances of scoring thanks to DeGea who made some brilliant saves during the normal time, it was an entertaining and very competitive match in which Brighton were played with confidence through out the whole 90 minutes including the extra time unfortunately Brighton missed their penalty played by March who played above the woodwork, however I don't think Man Utd stand any chance of defeating Man City in the finals going by the City brilliant performance in recent matches and are aiming for treble in FA Cup, EPL trophy and UCL trophy.

Terrible penalty by Solly March but somebody has to be the fall guy otherwise we’d be going on all night. Should be a good final, an all Manchester Derby. City will be favourites but anything can happen in a final. Two trophies and a top 4 finish would be a good first season Ten Hag.

Penalties are like lottery, there is some luck involved but it is enough that one or two players are not mentally stable and they are losing the match.
I really wanted to see Brighton winning this one but having Manchester derby in FA Cup final have a special meaning for both clubs.
Man City is heavy favorite to win and I am waiting to see early odds for this match but there is time until June 3 when final is scheduled.

@Lordhermes this was an incredible semi finals match and I personally felt that Brighton deserved to win, and even though I’m a Manchester United fan but yet I really felt sorry for all the Brighton fan’s. Also when it went to penalties I thought that Manchester United would miss as they often miss, but all the player’s stepped up well to take their penalty kick but overall they need to improve their performances if they want to beat City in the final’s.

[Despairo]

A good match by Brighton and Manchester United, I think both of the goal keepers are show a good performance. If they're make a good saves, it's either Brighton or Manchester United will score a goal and penalty would not happen.

I still wonder why Ten Hag tend to let Martial or Weghorst to play at center forward position rather than Rashford, Rashford usually more successful when he was play at center forward position rather than at left winger position.

Maguire is suspended, it is why he isn't in the line up. Good news for Manchester United supporters who see him as the cause of their problems.

Thanks for the clarification, it's good to see Maguire get suspended lol.

[Strongkored]

The unpleasant thing about a game that has to end on penalties is seeing the team that played better but get knocked out, both teams have very accurate penalty shooters and also a goalkeeper who doesn't have a good history of saving penalties so it all depends on their shooters, but unfortunately, Solly March was the only shooter from Brighton who failed and the United shooter was able to shoot well under quite a lot of pressure as it looked like Brighton were the favorites seeing how the crowd were in their favor.

The final between the two teams from Manchester looks like it will be a win for City because United did not show sharpness in attack against Brighton in contrast to City, whose main striker always gets good assists from midfielders, so I see that United are not the favorites in the final later.

The FA cup final is between Manchester city vs Manchester united, I believe many people will predict for the favour of Manchester city base on their performance in champions league quater-finals that made them to qualified for semi-finals easily. Manchester united struggle to defeated their opponent in penalty shoot out yesterday, because their displayed from the beginning of this match was very poor and it will not help them to have a good confident that they will win Manchester city in this final battle. Manchester city will be my favorite team in this final, because they have potential players that will make it happen for them to achieve the title at the end of the match.

Manchester United have a fighting spirit, and judging their future performance by their present performance may not be good. Manchester United understand that this is another opportunity to win another title to add to their stack this season while waiting to have a go at the Champions League and Premier League next season. The only major concern for Manchester United is their defense, if they can fix it and go all out against Manchester City, they can win them. We have already seen it once this season.

The game Manchester United played yesterday is quite different from their pattern in EPL. Harry Maguire was benched and this was a good decision cuz I think it wouldn't have ended that way if he was featured in the match. Though Manchester United went through hell before winning was possible, I still have little hope that their game in the finals will be more coordinated than what we saw yesterday. If only they can fix their defense, I'm sure they will have good ball play against Manchester City.  We shouldn't judge their future from Ye111sterday's performance

The game was very interesting and entertaining to watch, both side played really well. Brighton is not an easy team to play with, they have been giving a lot team tough time this season, they are in a good position in the English Premier League Table and before the end of the season they might qualify for Euro Competition next season. Manchester United still want to see if they can add the FA Cup to their collections this season, since they have been be eliminated from the European League, their last hope of winning another trophy is the FA cup but is not going to be easy for them because Manchester City is a very good side, so is going to be a cracker that day, what an interesting final, Manchester derby.

Playing the FA Cup semi-final at home to Brighton, Man United were made to suffer. A lot of great chances Brighton got but De Gea was outstanding. He deserves to be the best player in today's match. He managed to deny several shots of the Brighton players. In addition to Brighton controlling the game, they won possession. But luckily they missed one penalty. In the final Man United will play Man City, it is quite difficult but this is the last hope of a trophy for Ten Hag this season.

It's true that I myself will also favor Manchester City, which will win the FA Cup this season. Moreover, Manchester City must secure this title if they want to win the Treble Winner this season. On the other hand, Manchester City is quite easy to qualify for the FA Cup final because it is against a team from the second division of the English league, while Manchester United has to fight one of the teams that is on the rise this season in the EPL, namely Brighton, so it is quite natural for Manchester United to go qualifying for the final round was quite difficult and got past the penalty shootout to ensure his steps into the final.

Pep Guardiola to me is a noisy kind of manager, he will have alarming statement to the media on any side chances he wins the FA cup and then premier league. I know its possible but England may not allow this.  I myself, will not like to see Pep Guardiola win this title.  I prefer the wins UEFA champion league cuz that one will be adding even more glory to his coaching portfolio.  I'm only discouraged by my notion because the game Manchester United played isn't convincing enough to say that they will become the FA Cup champions

Manchester United did well in qualifying as I would not expect them to play beautiful football just two days after they were devastated by Sevilla and they were eliminated from Europa League without scoring an honor goal in the second leg.The fact that they got to extra time is exactly because of this,they were tired and not fully concentrated in the FA game.Manchester City on the other hand won easily continuing their super perfect form in all three tournaments they are taking part so far,they for me are the favorites to win this cup as to put it simple,no other team from the Premier League can compete with them now,with such form they have they can beat any team.

Brighton lost yesterday's match due to a slight mistake. After the first 90 minutes of play, when the match was goalless, the match referee and the captains of both teams decided to extend the playing time. And accordingly some extra time was added to the match but neither team was able to score.  Penalties were then chosen to decide the win or loss of this match. 
When the penalty shot was decided, the first five goals were successfully scored by both teams. But when a Brighton player missed a penalty while kicking the next two goals, Manchester United seized the opportunity to book their place in the FA Cup final. Brighton had a great performance on the field but they couldn't come back with a win which is unfortunate for them but they did a great job on the field.

I am still residing on your line that says #no other team in the premier league can compete with them now. Hope u know that Brighton whom they couldn't win throughout 90 minutes time of play, is also an EPL team.   Manchester United lucky win yesterday doesn't excite me in anyway and I will not give more credit to them than they deserve. A win in the Europa league would have been more appraising than what I saw against Brighton. U can hold up to your notion that Man U is currently the best in EPL, I will. Support u if they succeed in winning Manchester city who is currently the EPL defending champions

[Yogee]

Lines are already available so you don't have to speculate anymore. Man City is the heavy favorite as expected at 1.63 on moneyline while Man United is at 5.0

There is probably a few who think MU would win so the bookmakers are already generous with City @1.63 as I thought it would be around 1.4 or 1.3 considering how dominant they have been recently. The City handicap -1 at 1.96 is my likely bet here. The main question is if they will use full strength or not. If they make it to the Champions League Finals then they may rest some of their key players to prevent injuries.

[Freeveto]

Brighton played a lot better then Manchester United in my opinion and if they gave wins based on public opinions, then Brighton would have won the game. They definitely were more organized with their accurate passes as well as having more of the ball in their possession. Unfortunately for them, they couldn’t utilize all that to score a goal so it wouldn’t have gone into penalties.

I’m happy for Manchester United as they’ve qualified yet again to play in the finals of the FA cup. Having won by penalties, some would say they were lucky. I think a win is a win.
Now, they’ve got to seriously prepare themselves to face an elite team in the finals. It would be an interesting game to watch.

Brighton really played well, I was glad seeing how they were able to dominate and possess the ball during the match, despite their lost, it wasn't a bad result because I think they play a better team that has many experience in a situation like that. Holding Manchester United draw till 120 minutes is a good result for the team. Penalty is a game of luck and the luck for that moment was with Manchester United and they have to win.  It will be interesting to watch the two Manchester club in the final , lets see who it will go .

[Merit.s]

Manchester united wasn't favourite for the match, Brighton was master class in the game. They show class and were more organized than Manchester united. Luck run out of them . we're waiting for the super Manchester derby in the FA cup finals. It will be tough for both team, I can't decide who's favourite for the cup. Till the very day of the finals.

You are right, Brighton deserves the winning but they were unlucky. I admire their pattern of football based on their passes and bond. Manchester united is suffering from injured players that plays vital role in the club. They lack a good midfielder,it was luck that was on their side which made them to win the game through PK. I don't think that united will be able to win this trophy,because they will be playing with the strongest club this season . Man City is in their super form and wouldn't take this match for granted. Gadiuola will a tough one on ETH. Will luck also favour united on that day ? I guess no.

@Merit.s Manchester United are really suffering from injured players in the team, the full back players are all injured and the midfielders are just recovering from Injury.  Erickson flopped yesterday, he's passing wasn't connecting because of injury. I just hope all injured players are fit before the final game with Manchester city.

Manchester United female team Also qualified to the Women FA cup final in the premier league women team. Truly the glorious years is returning to the club. Ten hag is doing a wonderful job in the club and I believe he will lift the league title next year.

I too liked Brightons gameplay. They were coordinated with their passes and tried to retain the ball in their possession and it showed with the general statistics on ball possession. Like you noted, Manchester United has some players missing from the squad cause of injuries.
With penalties, it’s difficult to predict a winner as it could go either way.

So I guess Manchester United was lucky to have won the game on penalties. Having qualified for the final, they’re to face Manchester City. Now, both teams on paper would seem to be evenly matched but with Manchester United’s current form, I think they’re no match for Man City. I wish Man United well but I just don’t see them winning the game. Man City is out to grab and win as much trophies as they can.
