Man Utd beat Man City to win 2023/24 FA Cup

Manchester United have won the 2023/24 FA Cup with a huge 2-1 win over Manchester City at Wembley.

In a repeat of last season's final, City were expected to seal back-to-back doubles but failed to add to their Premier League crown as Erik ten Hag's side roared to a huge victory.

City were sloppy to start the game and ultimately handed Alejandro Garnacho the opening goal on a plate as a mix-up between Josko Gvardiol and Stefan Ortega gifted the Argentine a free shot on an empty net.

After Marcus Rashford saw a goal ruled out for offside, Kobbie Mainoo added a second before the first half was over, setting up a second half which saw United sit back and defend their hard-fought lead.

City had their moments after the break and Erling Haaland rattled the crossbar early on, but United's deep back line and resolute defending ensured Jeremy Doku's late strike was little more than a consolation when the final whistle blew.

The trophy win - the second piece of silverware of Ten Hag's tenure at United - also hands the Red Devils a spot in next season's Europa League.

Having sealed their lowest-ever Premier League finish of eighth, United had thought they had missed out on any form of European competition, but their huge win at Wembley hands them a route into the Europa League and ensures the season ends on a high note.

Next for those in charge at United will be a final decision on the future of Ten Hag. Reports before the final suggested the Dutchman would be sacked regardless of the result at Wembley, but that theory will now be put to the test.

United famously dismissed manager Louis van Gaal after their win over Crystal Palace in the 2016 FA Cup final.
