Manchester United beat their bitter rivals Liverpool in the most extraordinary FA Cup quarter-final at Old Trafford
Manchester United produced a stunning comeback to beat Liverpool 4-3 in an epic FA Cup quarter-final as Amad Diallo scored an 120th winner to deny Jurgen Klopp’s side their quadruple bid.
Diallo scored a breakaway goal at the death - and was then sent off for taking his shirt off in celebration - to send United through to Wembley in a dramatic finish at Old Trafford.
Liverpool had been minutes from the semi-finals, in what is Klopp’s final season at Anfield, but Marcus Rashford scored a 112th minute equaliser in extra time, before Diallo’s remarkable winner.
United will play Coventry City in the semi-finals, while the FA Cup draw handed holders Manchester City a Wembley date with Chelsea.
