GWT: 2023-24 English Domestic Cups (FA/Carabao)

[Venkman]

Good half by Dalot at both ends of the pitch assisting McTom then intercepting a ball into United's box. Nice header by Maguire.

Fitting that both United goal scorers today are guys football brain ten Hag transfer listed

It's how we all thought it would play out at the beginning of the season. McTominay and Maguire scoring goals in a cup semi...

BRUNO!

 

[Jussi]

This guy's probably having a blast:

 

[hatterson]

Decent tackle by Maguire there but if he wants to make it as a middle linebacker he's really gotta wrap the legs instead of doing a shoulder tackle.

I suppose it was alright left tackle play though.

This is hilarious

 

[koyvoo]

Historical comeback in the making..

 

[hatterson]

This is hilarious

It's absolutely classic ETH

It's absolutely classic ETH

For sure. They could take that shot 100x and not have it deflect into the net quite that comically for the other 99 attempts though

 

[hatterson]

You're up 3-0 against a lower league team. There's absolutely zero excuse for anything remotely exciting happening for the rest of the game.

Instead United have zero idea how to close out a game and enjoy repeatedly throwing numbers forward and leaving acres of space in midfield and out wide.

 

[Jussi]

It's absolutely classic ETH

Not sure how you can blame ETH for that deflection.

Not sure how you can blame ETH for that deflection.

I blame him for how the team has played in the second half. The deflection was lucky, but the fact that United have been holding on for a while absolutely isn't luck.

 

[GeoRox89]

Coventry really should’ve equalized there

 

[luiginb]

Great save by Onana there who now is booked for time-wasting. Against Coventry haha

United got booked for time wasting...against a lower league team....in a game they were leading 3-0 at 70 minutes. I'm not sure what else to say except that its hilarious.

Coventry really hasn't had that many chances. It's more that United wasted their counters, except for the one where Bruno scored. Dalot and Casemiro fell asleep on the first goal and the second was a fluke deflection.

 

[hatterson]

lmaoooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[GeoRox89]

This is the most entertaining game in a long time

Weird to see a team actually get a penalty for an outstretched arm. Didn’t think that was allowed

 

[hatterson]

He was starting to tuck his arm back, but yea he was basically arms all the way out horizontal before then for absolutely no reason at all.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

U-S-A!

 

[GeoRox89]

So good. This is hilarious

(United was my EPL team before Forest went up and is still my No 2 )

 

[luiginb]

So glad I didn't switch this off at 3 0. Had a feeling lol

I turned it on at 1-3 thinking “let’s give it a few minutes”

I honestly can't remember the last time I watched a United game where they had a lead and felt confident they would just calmly see it out.
