Manchester United will face Coventry City in the FA Cup semi-finals after Amad Diallo fired the Red Devils to a stunning 4-3 extra-time win over Liverpool in Sunday’s quarter-final classic.
Diallo fired across Caoimhin Kelleher in the 121st minute to decide a remarkable game at Old Trafford, where United were forced to fight back from 2-1 and 3-2 down.
The young winger was then sent off for removing his shirt amid the chaotic celebrations which followed his goal, which ended Jurgen Klopp’s hopes of a quadruple in his final campaign with Liverpool.
