Manchester United Beats Manchester City!
London, May 25 (EFE).-
Manchester United defied the odds to beat Manchester City 2-1 in the FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday.
United, who finished in eighth place in the Premier League after a disappointing campaign, stunned the Premier League champions City with a hugely impressive display.
They took the lead when Alejandro Garnacho capitalized on a terrible mixup between Josko Gvardiol and goalkeeper Stefan Ortega to tap into an empty net after half an hour.

United doubled their lead eight minutes later with a brilliant goal from youngster Kobbie Mainoo, who was played in by an excellent pass from the impressive Bruno Fernandes.
It was a deserved lead for United, with City unable to match their intensity.
As expected, City dominated during the second half: they struck the crossbar through Erling Haaland, and substitute Julian Alvarez should have halved the deficit after Phil Foden had slipped him in but the Argentinian shot wide.
But surprisingly, the Premier League champions struggled to find their typically fluid rhythm.

City eventually found a breakthrough when Jeremy Dokuâs shot somehow squirmed past Andre Onana in the 87th minute, but they could not find an equalizer in the gameâs dying moments.
With reports ahead of the match suggesting this would be manager Erik Ten Hagâs final game, regardless of the result, Unitedâs new part-owners at Ineos will have a decision to make on whether to keep the Dutch coach in charge next season. EFE
