Man United wins the FA Cup title after defeating the City
Baghdad-INA
Manchester United succeeded in saving its season by winning the FA Cup, with a 2-1 victory over its neighbor the Manchester City, in the final match hosted by Wembley Stadium, today, Saturday.
United took the lead with two goals in the first half (30 and 39) through Jarnacho and Kobe Maino, before Jeremy Doku scored the reducing goal in the 87th minute.
The start was different from what many expected, as calm prevailed on the field, and danger disappeared from the goals of both sides until the ninth minute.
Jarnacho fired a powerful shot from inside the City penalty area, which was brilliantly blocked by goalkeeper Ortega.
Silva sent a cross into the Manchester United penalty area, and Phil Foden met it with a direct touch into the net from the outside.
United succeeded in scoring the lead goal after half an hour, taking advantage of a grave mistake committed by Guardiol by returning the ball back the moment Ortega left the area, only for Jarnacho to find it in front of him, and he was responsible for putting it into the empty goal.
Onana stood, blocking a powerful shot fired by Silva from the edge of the penalty area, before the referee canceled a second goal for the Red Devils, scored by Rashford, because Jarnacho was offside before her.
But that did not prevent United from returning to consolidate their lead from a ground cross sent by Fernandez into the penalty area. Maino had no difficulty placing it to the left of Ortega, who was unable to confront it.
Man City almost reduced the score when Haaland fired a shot from the heart of the penalty area, hitting the crossbar.
Onana blocked a long-range missile shot fired by Walker, saving his goal from conceding City's first goals.
Dalot penetrated from the left side before trying his luck with a shot from outside the City penalty area, but it went wide of the goal.
Fernandez executed a free kick, but Ortega had no difficulty blocking his shot, which landed in his position.
About 3 minutes before the end of normal time, Onana committed a blunder after he failed to deal with Doku’s shot from outside the penalty area, and it hit his hand before passing into the net, igniting City’s match in the final minutes.
Fernandez tried to take advantage of City's advance towards his team's goal, and decided to shoot a ball from a long distance behind Ortega, who was advancing from his goal, but his attempt was not accurate enough and the ball passed outside the field.
Despite intense attempts until the end, Man City failed to achieve what they wanted, so the referee blew the final whistle with United winning.
