Manchester United, with great Altay Bayindir, who stopped two penalties, one in the match and the other in the shootout, knocked out Arsenal in the 1/32 final of the FA Cup after lasting sixty minutes with fewer people (1-1 and 3-5).
The one in Rúben Amorim, current FA Cup champions, They achieved a gutsy victory at the Emirates Stadium to eliminate one of the favorites for the title after a thrilling match where the second half reminded us of the beauty of this competition.
All against United
The ‘Red Devils’, who were not all favorites in this match, came out on top Alejandro Garnacho won a duel in the middle of the field against the young man Lewis-Skellydrove to the front and made a horizontal pass to Bruno Fernandes that the Portuguese impaled the goal.
However, this United joy was short-lived and Bruno’s goal gave way to ten minutes of drama. First, Diogo Dalot fired himself with an unnecessary tackle when he already has a yellow card. Two minutes later, Gabriel Magalhaes scored after a set piece. This time, the Brazilian didn’t do it with his head, his most lethal weapon, he did it with a left-footed shot that played at De Ligt and penetrated Bayindir’s aim.
Non-existent penalty missed by Odegaard
And to top it all off, the referee whistled a non-existent penalty from Harry Maguire to Kai Havertz. Without VAR, nothing would change the referee’s opinion, but Maguire did not hesitate to confront the German and loudly called him a “cheater.”
Karma acted and Martin Odegaard meets a great Bayindir, who scored the ball past the post and kept the score at 1-1, as he would in the next few minutes, serving two brutal hands on Declan Rice and seeing how Havertz inexplicably missed a shot without a goalkeeper one meter from the goal line.
Only Havertz failed
The curse of the German, due to the invented penalty, did not end there, and after extra time in which United went all the way, Bayindir guessed Havertz’s 11-meter shot and the other kickers scored. Amorim’s bet on the Turkish goalkeeper in the FA Cup instead Andre Onanathis time on the bench.
Joshua Zirkzee Much criticized in his early months at United, he scored the final penalty and made farewell gestures to the Emirates fans, who were eliminated from this edition of the FA Cup.
