So, 70 minutes gone... and it's still 0-0. I can't say I'm surprised. Edit: Colour me surprised, ET at 1-1!
delighted! We won with a man down and a goal down, wasn't a great game to watch but I don't care! What a strike from Lingard that was!
Told my brother that Lingard will win the game for Man Utd when he was about to come on, good to see it turn true with a great strike and also had the final kick of the game. Been so long since last win that this is Rooney's first FA cup win.
I have missed this feeling of celebration so badly... I'm happy for Rooney, happy for Lingard, happy for all of them honestly. Yes!! rip in palace Alan Pardew
Yeah, but it's only the optional competition so it's not that exciting. In other news, Bristol Rovers take this season's "Worst FA Cup Team" title.
That's something I wanted to ask. How great of a price is the FA cup actually? The KNVB cup here is more of a second-rate price.
The big clubs don't care that much about it. The small clubs see it as an opportunity to make a name for themselves by getting a game on tv, maybe causing an upset. The purists wish it was the most important competition again because it's the oldest of all the competitions. Realistically a win for Palace would have done more for them than for United, but they are definitely celebrating it, make no mistake.
