Hero of Manchester United’s win over Fulham
Fans hail hero of United’s FA Cup Semi-final win
Man United would not have won the FA Cup quarter final if Fulham did not create chaos in the second half.
It was Sancho’s shot which was blocked by Willian using his hand, which caused the fuss. It was all chaos as Willian was shown the red card while coach Marco Silva got sent off for over protesting the referee’s decision. Fulham’s goal scorer Alexander Mitrovic was sent off in a similar fashion as he lost his cool in front of the match official.
Soon after, Sancho once again proved to be crucial as he provided a pre-assist for Marcel Sabitzer’s winner and his first goal for the club.
Sancho himself might not have gotten a goal or an assist but he has earned the respect of Man United fans.
How did the fans react?
Pryde: “Jadon Sancho won us the game. Never doubt him, he just needs to get his confidence back.”
Casey Evans: “Sancho playing 4D chess here, could have scored easy but he saw the double red card and pen play”
The United Stand: “Jadon Sancho has single-handedly gotten three people sent off. What a man.”
Frank: “Jadon Sancho won this football match, absolutely cracking second half. The big players STEP up in the big moments.”
utdrobbo: “The composure to win the penalty after rounding the keeper resulting in a Fulham collapse & then to perfectly set up Luke Shaw to assist the potential winner. THAT is Jadon Sancho.”
Charlie: “Absolutely convinced Sancho’s time will come at Manchester United. I think he’s an unbelievable player, even when he doesn’t directly contribute to a goal, think his understanding of the game is excellent. Still got so much hope for him.”
