Play report from Man UTD 1 Fulham 1 | FA Cup Fifth round | March 2, 2025

extension

Some fans in Old Trafford thought that Garnacho gave United in the lead with the first chance of extension and raised an exertion of close -up area into the adjoining netting. From an almost identical position with one of the last steps of the first period, Obi rolled almost one beyond Leno, but he managed to get enough to send him there, and once again refused a historical moment for the youngster of the academy.

With both sides, less chances were difficult in the second period. Onana did well to stop Ryan Sessegnon and Willian's shots, and Garnacho looked lively as usual, but these two should separate punishments.

Punish

The shootout was until the fourth kick by United Level, when Leno managed to get enough behind Victor Lindelof's shot to keep it out of his network. Fernandes, Dalot and Casemiro had all previously found the network.

Joshua Zirkzee was next and experienced the same result. The fate of United had been decided; The Reds bowed from the Fa cup.
