Manchester United’s victory seemed assured after goals from Scott McTominay, Harry Maguire, and Bruno Fernandes. However, a dramatic turnaround in the second half saw the EFL Championship side score three goals to force the game into extra time at Wembley Stadium. With no further goals scored, the match was decided by a penalty shootout, which Manchester United won, securing their place in the tournament final.
Despite reaching the final, there are doubts about the future of their coach, Ten Hag, with ex-Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher criticizing the team’s performance as “embarrassing” and expressing skepticism about the coach’s continued tenure.
