"I believe that if we can beat Liverpool like that, we can beat any opponent ," said coach Erik ten Hag after Man Utd defeated Liverpool in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
The Old Trafford team won 4-3. Man Utd scored first thanks to Scott McTominay but then Liverpool turned the game around.
Man Utd beat Liverpool in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
The Red Devils equalized twice - once late in the second half and again in extra time. Amad Diallo scored the decisive goal in the second period of extra time, sending Man Utd into the FA Cup semi-finals.
"This is probably the moment when we have the belief and energy to do special things," said the Man Utd head coach.
The Dutch coach did not hesitate to praise his players: "I have said many times that we are a team with a bright future. You can clearly see the potential of the team."
Antony was one of the players that received special praise from coach Erik ten Hag. The Brazilian striker equalized 2-2 for Man Utd in the final minutes of the second half. This was only Antony's second goal for Man Utd this season (both goals came in the FA Cup).
"He has had a difficult time. In the early stages, he was not himself and that was because of himself. Antony lost his confidence and now he has to regain it. In the last two weeks, he has returned. I see the version of Antony that I worked with at Ajax," coach Erik ten Hag commented on Man Utd's number 21.
According to the draw results last night, Man Utd will meet Coventry City in the FA Cup semi-finals. This is the easiest scenario for the "Red Devils", because Coventry City only plays in the Championship (1 level below the Premier League), while the other 2 opponents are Chelsea and Man City facing each other.
