Two goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Maino in the first half gave Manchester United their 13th FA Cup win, their first under their embattled manager, Erik ten Hag. Though substitute Jeremy Doku scored in the 87th minute and there were seven added minutes, United got over the line and into Europe in the Europa League.
Ten Hag could name Lisandro Martinez and Raphaël Varane together in the starting lineup for the first time in almost 100 days and they showed United fans what they have missed throughout the season.
A gaffe from Joško Gvardiol gave Garnacho the easiest of tap-ins for the first goal after United had withstood pressure from the first minute.
