Manchester United defeated Manchester City 2-1 at Wembley and won the FA Cup against their city rivals as the Red Devils will play in the Europa League next campaign after the triumph.
For the 1st time in the tournament history, 2 teenagers scored goals as Alejandro Garnacho gave the lead to Manchester United in the 30th minute. Kobbie Mainoo doubled the Red Devils lead in the 39th minute after an assist from captain Bruno Fernandes.

It was a replay from last year’s final, but this time with a different winner as Pep Guardiola’s side grabbed the trophy in the past edition of the tournament.
Jeremy Doku, who replaced Mateo Kovacic at the beginning of the 2nd half, scored in the 87th minute after a huge mistake from Andre Onana that gave the opportunity to the Sky Blues to try to force an extra time in the final minutes of the match.
The triumph can be a huge relief for Erik ten Hag as the Dutch manager’s future at Old Trafford remains uncertain.
