Manchester United defender Harry Maguire was delighted after his team played well in the second half to beat Leicester City 2-1 and book their place in the FA Cup.
Manchester United started the first half poorly and fell behind to Leicester City. But Joshua Zirkze equalised in the second half and Harry Maguire scored the winner in stoppage time against his former club สมัคร UFABET
Maguire said after reaching the last 16: “It was a great finish. We were much better in the second half. The first half wasn’t nearly as good. We were slow and didn’t really go in. And We deserved to be behind at half-time.”
“I thought in the second half we came out with a much more alert tempo. We held the game and really felt we could win and thankfully I put the ball in the goal.”
The slick defender also heaped praise on Alejandro Garnacho, who performed well off the bench. Saying: “I thought he had a big impact. He always does when he comes on as a substitute, so credit to him.”
United pushed and the Argentina international saw a thumping attempt held after Ugarte’s challenge on Harry Winks drew gasps but just a booking.
And just as fans braced themselves for extra time a free-kick ended the tie.
Fernandes sent a ball over to Maguire, who was able to power a header home without the VAR ruling the goal off for offside.
