Casemiro makes case as Manchester United's key player in FA Cup win over Reading

MANCHESTER, England -- Casemiro scored twice as Manchester United booked their place in the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 3-1 win over Reading.

After a first half during which Reading, 14th in the Championship, frustrated Erik ten Hag's team, the Brazilian midfielder scored twice in four minutes after the break. Fred came off the bench to score a third with a clever flick after Reading striker Andy Carroll had been sent off for picking up two yellow cards.

Amadou Mbengue scored gave the travelling fans something to cheer with a consolation goal but it's United who are into the draw with the next round.
