Manchester United won the FA Cup with a 2-1 victory over Manchester City. Both Manchester clubs reached the final of England’s oldest cup competition again, with City aiming to retain the trophy after winning last year’s final.
Pep Guardiola’s side had won the last three encounters against United, and the Reds entered the final as underdogs once more. However, the game did not unfold as expected.
Defying the odds, United secured a remarkable victory thanks to first-half goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo, which proved decisive.
