Erik ten Hag and Manchester United stunned defending champion Manchester City, 2-1, to lift the FA Cup at Wembley on Saturday.
If this was Erik ten Hag’s final game in charge of Manchester United, it was a sensational way to go out. Against the backdrop of intense speculation that he is about to be fired, Ten Hag and United stunned defending champion Manchester City, 2-1, to lift the FA Cup at Wembley on Saturday. Receiving his medal from the future king of England, Prince William, the Dutchman then got his hands on his second trophy in as many seasons to end a troubled campaign on a high.
Ten Hag got his tactics spot on as United soaked up pressure and pounced to take control by the break. Garnacho opened the scoring in the 30th minute, sparking panic in City’s defense when chasing onto a hopeful punt from Diogo Dalot deep in his half. Josko Gvardiol was quicker to the ball, but his headed back pass went over the onrushing City goalkeeper Stefan Ortega to leave Garnacho with an open net to tap home.
