"See ya man, later yeah"
i was wondering thatFelt weird to moan about this yesterday but how the feck did that referee find 5 minutes of added time in a 15 minute half?
I guess you are talking about me, unless there's someone else too.Just finished watching the game as I missed it yesterday. We were definitely better first 35 minutes, then dropped last 10 minutes of that half and they took the lead. In second half Liverpool better until like 5 or 10 minutes before Antony's goal, then obviously we could've even won it as Rashford missed that sitter. Thought we were better overall in extra time as well, so all in all deserved to win it.
Also the way Old Trafford erupted after Antony's and especially Amad's goal was beautiful. Where's that guy who said before the game it's his first time watching United at OT yesterday? Really glad for him, he's probably been smiling non-stop ever since Amad's goal.
I don't know about mauling but we had some absolutely great chances. McT should have made it 2-0 when he hit straight at the keeper. Until their first goal I don't think it was even at all.We were better for the opening 25 mins but it was pretty even if you take off your rose tinted glasses we were 1-2 down remember
That was infuriating. I didn't think the ref was as bad as other fans on here but that bit was maddening. He let them play for an extra 2 mins I thoughtFelt weird to moan about this yesterday but how the feck did that referee find 5 minutes of added time in a 15 minute half?
Love it!
Those idiots can feck off. Nice souvenir for the supporter there.McAteer, Souness, Carragher, Klopp feckin brilliant. Horrible bitter bastards.
This was me, pre-game. I just knew. How, I did not. Who the hell is gonna stop Salah? Who is gonna score for us? I had no clue. I just knew we gonna beat them and wipe the smile off the face of that increasingly annoying Klopp and his Jesus come again-aura. To do it in the last seconds of ET...perfect, just perfect.West Ham up 1 against Villa. edit: no, West Ham up 2! Edit 2: aw, goal ruled out. Half time but West Ham is on top of Villa.
I remain, this will be a good day for us. We will crush LFC like a little insect under your boot. Its on!
Yes you're the one genuinely happy for you man, that's probably one of the best United games in post-Fergie era in many ways, you definitely knew which game to pick.I guess you are talking about me, unless there's someone else too.
Absolutely been smiling every second. Highlight of my 23 years of United fandom. Highest of highs.
Thanks for this. Wonderful

"See ya man, later yeah"
For 35 minutes yes.I haven't seen the entire team, including subs, playing so hard and for each other, in years. Everybody gave their all, and as a team, not just running around aimlessly individually. That night in Paris, when we beat PSG under Ollie comes close but in a way this was above and beyond anything since Fergie. It may have been just one FA Cup match, but it was also the spirit I had no idea we had left in our team.
Young kids were sensational - Mainoo, Garnacho, Amad. So proud of them.
Happy day, a very happy day. Well done everybody, including Erik
Not a chance. The Liverpool player played the ball on the Bruno's foot, who threw himself to the ground, brainfart AWB stands and complains to the ref and Liverpool take the ball and score. Completely stupid and pathetic from the two of them.Anyone talking about the foul on Bruno before their second goal? I thought it was a foul
I agree with your assessment of the 90 minutes but I thought united where the better team in extra time.For 35 minutes yes.
For 10 minutes at the end of 90 and 5 minutes at the end of 120; yes- in the other periods I thought we looked happy to stand and watch Liverpool pass it to each other. Am I wrong ?
Yeah, you’re wrong. Or at least you seem to have a weird notion that anything other than 90 minutes of total domination against one of the best teams in Europe is worthy of criticism. Football matches ebb and flow and there will be periods when good teams get on top. But to start and finish the match as the dominant team says only good things about the teams mentality.For 35 minutes yes.

You're the second person to say that, so my perception of the extra time must be wrong. I should go and watch it again. Not like it won't be a joyous experience.Yeah, you’re wrong.

In terms of more specific ways you’re wrong, there’s absolutely no way Liverpool dominated us for 25 out of the 30 minutes of extra time. So I’ve no idea how you think we only performed for 5 minutes of that period.
Watch it again, it doesn't matter whether he kicked the ball or Bruno first, it's the massive hand in the back from a player running full pelt that is the (blatant) foul. The ref and VAR were utter dogshit.Not a chance.

OK, I remember specifically looking at the feet, my eyes were no where near the back - I will go and watch.Watch it again, it doesn't matter whether he kicked the ball or Bruno first, it's the massive hand in the back from a player running full pelt that is the (blatant) foul.

Ha! Due to a series of complicated/annoying events the only bit I watched live was the last 5 minutes of extra time. I rewatched the whole thing just now. As always, watching a game when you know the result is miles less stressful and gives you a very different (and more accurate picture) of what happened. First half we were better until the last few minutes. Second half was the exact opposite. Extra time we were the team most likely to score for basically the whole time.You're the second person to say that, so my perception of the extra time must be wrong. I should go and watch it again. Not like it won't be a joyous experience.
That's why witnesses are practically useless - they can't remember if it was a bicycle or a bus, sunshine or rain - but they definitely saw it.
If you have the time, I would strongly recommend doing that. I've never done this before but as soon as I got home from the game yesterday I rewatched all of the first half, skipped most of the second half until the 80th minute, and then all of extra time.You're the second person to say that, so my perception of the extra time must be wrong.

We outplayed them on extra time. Particularly once we were down 2-3...with Bruno and Eriksen keeping the ball and everyone else running their socks off without the ball. We completely deserved the win.If you have the time, I would strongly recommend doing that.

At the time, I was so high on adrenaline that some chunks of extra time were a blur. On the rewatch, I was surprised by how well we played for large parts of extra time. We were worthy of our win.
I truly hope they learned how effective that can be. Off-the-ball movement is probably our biggest issue (along with a generally immobile back line screwing up the hope of a high press) and when we do move, magic happens.We outplayed them on extra time. Particularly once we were down 2-3...with Bruno and Eriksen keeping the ball and everyone else running their socks off without the ball. We completely deserved the win.
Im not anti Klopp, just anti the Klopp bandwagon and all the luvvies who ride it and the rubbish they spout; the BBC especially fawn over everything Klopp does and says and in a poll a few months back Klopp was placed higher than Sir Alex! Well, the beeb hate both SAF and United. The truth is Klopps a very good manager hes no Wenger, Mourinho, Guardiolla or SAF!Indeed. Since he said he's going everyone in the press seems to be rooting for him. They'll be sad when he goes because he's good value I suppose.
I know what you mean - Joy, Deep, Deep Joy!This was me, pre-game. I just knew. How, I did not. Who the hell is gonna stop Salah? Who is gonna score for us? I had no clue.

This whole day I just cannot stop smiling. The greatest feeling!

Yeah, had a similar situation against Arsenal/Odegaard last year (or the one before?).One of those ones where some refs give it and some refs don't. And that ref yesterday definitely wasn't gonna give it.
Unfortunately Bruno dives too easily and looks for soft frees, and it's obvious he's used up all his credit with a lot of PL refs as a result.

AbsolutelyOles was better
I was optimistically already asking that before the gameLet's hope they can finally kick on from this awesome win or will it be yet another flash in the pan false dawn.
Will we turn another corner?
I rewound the extra time twice after it finished and have watched the highlights 4 timesIf you have the time, I would strongly recommend doing that. I've never done this before but as soon as I got home from the game yesterday I rewatched all of the first half, skipped most of the second half until the 80th minute, and then all of extra time.

Those are rookie numbers. You've got to pump those numbers up!I rewound the extra time twice after it finished and have watched the highlights 4 times
Bruh that's AI. Nobody talks like that.For those who don't think Gary Nev isnt a real red! (apologies for the awful American commentary - although it's quite funny that he can barely pronounce FA!)
That was just that day. Work has gotten in the way sinceThose are rookie numbers. You've got to pump those numbers up!
ITV keep everything on their app for 30 days, so I'm sure be rewatching the whole of extra time again soon. Certainly more preferable than watching any international football this weekend!
