FA Cup: Fellaini goal sends United through to semi-final
Marouane Fellaini’s goalĀ sealed an FA Cup semi-final date for Manchester United last night.
Fellaini’s goal will see Man U meetĀ Everton after a 2-1 win over West Ham in their quarter-final replay at Upton Park.
In the last-ever cup tie at this famous ground before West Ham move to the Olympic Stadium, United broke Hammers hearts, with goals from Marcus Rashford and Fellaini helping them earn the victory in a match where Wayne Rooney made his return as a late substitute.
James Tomkins’ late goal did make things interesting, but the hosts couldn’t find a way past David de Gea, who once again came to United’s rescue late on with a stunning double save.
The Toffees await on April 23, and if United show the kind of endeavour they did in the East End, they could well be booking another trip to Wembley for the final.
