One might expect frenzied celebrations and tears of joy when a team secures its place in the final of one of the most historic competitions in world football, but that simply wasn’t the case for Manchester United on Sunday.
United’s players remained distinctly flat after beating second-tier side Coventry City on penalties in the FA Cup semifinals, after what sport journalist Luke Edwards called “the most humiliating victory I’ve seen for a long time.” The Premier League giant had started the game well, racing into a 3-0 lead and seemingly wrapping the match up with less than an hour played. But, as they have done throughout this turbulent season, things started to go very wrong for the 12-time FA Cup winner.
‘You don’t know what you’re going to get’ The lack of leadership on display was what worried former United captain Roy Keane the most. “We are having the same conversation every week about Manchester United,” pundit Keane told broadcaster ITV. “You don’t know what you’re going to get.
