Manchester United has emerged victorious over rivals Manchester City with a 2-1 win to clinch the FA Cup.
First-half goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo shocked the defending Premier League champions, putting United into an early 2-0 lead.
Despite a late goal from Jeremy Doku, City were unable to equalise, sealing United’s triumph.
The win marks a significant achievement for Erik Ten Hag, who has faced intense scrutiny after Manchester United finished eighth in the Premier League this season.
The Dutch manager, however, is reportedly set to be replaced despite this cup success.
Manchester City’s hopes of completing a domestic double were dashed as they failed to replicate their 2-1 victory over United in the same fixture last year.
City, who recently celebrated their fourth consecutive Premier League title, found themselves outmatched in this high-stakes encounter.
This FA Cup victory has unexpected repercussions for European football next season.
With United’s win, Chelsea is now set to play in the Europa Conference League instead of the Europa League.
Meanwhile, Newcastle United will miss out on European competitions.
