In what was a real FA Cup thriller, the Reds ended the match deserved 3-2 winners.
Under the floodlights at the Theatre of Dreams, Mason Greenwood equalised for United after Mohamed Salah’s opener before Marcus Rashford sent the Reds ahead shortly after half-time.
The visitors’ Egyptian winger pulled the sides back level midway through the second half but then, as has happened many times before, Bruno Fernandes produced a moment of magic to win the tie with a sublime free-kick.
Our manager was proud of his team following the excellent win and emphasised that when speaking to club media and BBC Sport post-match.
