(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Lee Young-ho = Manchester United (Man Utd) of the English Professional Football Premier League defeated Coventry City (Second Division) in a penalty kick after many hardships and went on to round final of the English Football Association (FA) Cup.
In the 2023-2024 FA Cup semi-final against Coventry held at Wembley Stadium in London, England on the 22nd (Korea time), Manchester United won 3-3 after a ‘bloody battle over 120 minutes’ and won 4-2 in penalty kick .
Accordingly, Manchester United will play the final match against Manchester City (hereinafter referred to as Manchester City), who defeated Chelsea the previous day, in the ‘Manchester Derby’ at Wembley Stadium on May 25th time local.
Manchester United lost 1-2 to Manchester City in the FA Cup final last season, so they took the opportunity to get revenge for the first time in a year.
Although they won on penalties, Manchester United showed a disappointing performance that oscillated between ‘heaven and hell’.
Due to a series of injuries to centre-backs, Manchester United faced Coventry with defensive midfielder Casemiro forming a central defensive combination with Harry Maguire.
