Man United 2-1 Norwich City: Maguire Scores Crucial FA Cup Goal

Manchester United on Saturday defeated Norwich City 2-1 to advance to the FA Cup semi-finals.

Harry Maguire’s 118th-minute winner separated the two sides to give United victory over 10-man Norwich.

Interestingly, Norwich reduced to 10 men when Timm Klose was dismissed late in normal time.

During the game, the England centre-back made so much effort after Odion Ighalo’s opener was cancelled out courtesy of a brilliant strike from Todd Cantwell.

Meanwhile, only Maguire, Luke Shaw and Bruno Fernandes retained their place in the lineup against Sheffield United at Old Trafford after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer made eight changes.

So far, Odion Ighalo was handed his first start since the resumption of the season, with Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba both rested.

The match was a tough one for United, considering ten men Norwich, but United dominated possession and Norwich kept a deep defensive shape, with manager Daniel Farke barking instructions from the touchline.
