Harry Maguire scored a winner of the injury against the former club Leicester, while the holders of Manchester United came behind the basis to win 2-1 and advance in the fifth round of Fa Cup.
The defender seemed to be an offside position while Bruno Fernandes swung in a free kick that he was going past Mads Hermansen, but without VAR in action at this stage of the competition, the goal was awarded.
United, – who have reached the last two finals, have spent the fourth round for the tenth time in 11 seasons.
Within Old Trafford, it has been hoping that the team of the Premier League in the last nine games United will not fight as they have done on home soil lately.
Still, it didn’t take long to evaporate it. First, the audience was silent, and then they arrived groan when the ball played backwards, and frustration due to lack of intensity and creativity. The hosts were missing the drive, played in the pace of walking and seemed devoid of the idea.
Leicester fully used it just before the break. Bilal El Khannouss was allowed time and space to skip Leny Yoro and pull the ball back for the unmarked Wilfred Ndidi, whose shot was saved by Andre onan, just to reject Bobby de Cordova-Reid and across the line.
Patrick Dorgua – lively on his debut – replaced Alejandro Garnacho at halftime, because Ruben amomed seemed to put a fresh life into his team, but it had passed more than an hour before they posted their first shot at the target of the night.
When it came, just an incredible backdrop of Caleb Okoli – who hit the crossbar before he was hooked – stopped Garnach’s shot to cross the line.
United’s momentum continued to grow, and they renewed the parity in three minutes. The Garnach cross found Rasmus Hojlund, whose relationship was blocked by Wout Faes. But the ball fell perfectly for Zirkzee, who scored his first goal from December 19 to the empty net.
From there, it seemed as if additional times were more likely than any side finding the winner.
But in the last seconds of stopping the second half, Maguire connected with Fernandes’s beautiful delivery to get out of prison.
What is coming?
