Goals Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Maticha brought the mankunians to the next stage of the tournament (2: 0).

Mancunians among the week shamefully left the rally of the Champions League. In addition, the championship race in the Premier League has long been lost, so the FA Cup - almost the only tournament in which for Manchester United has an intrigue. In the first minutes, the guests tried to put pressure on Romero's possessions, but nothing remarkable happened. Jose Mourinho's wards were not in a hurry to accelerate the pace, but already at the end of ten minutes of the game created the moment - Lukaku did not hit the target after Valencia was sent from the flank.

"Seagulls" combined well, but before the accented final blow it came down quite rarely. In the final fifteen minutes of the inning, there were a couple of moments. First, Mata several times beat the wall with Martial and struck - the opponent blocked the attempt of the Spaniard. And a little later, Dank broke from the opponent and struck his head - Romero in an excellent jump team rescued. The apogee of all this was a goal - Nemanja Matic perfectly applied to the far post, and Romelu Lukaku hit his head hammer the ball into the goal. 1: 0. At the break the teams left with a minimal advantage of the hosts.

In the second half, the guests tried to catch Romero unawares by blows from outside the penalty area, but Gross did not have enough accuracy, and with the shot of Lokadia, the Argentinian coped. The Mancunians played at a very measured pace, so to speak, from the result. However, this did not stop them from hammering again. Nemanja Matic struck his head with a header after giving Ashley Young a free kick. 2: 0.



"Seagulls" continued to disturb Sergio Romero with blows from the approaches to the penalty area, but could not offer the guard of the MJ gate something super-ordinary, so the final whistle of Andre Marrinera recorded the victory of the hosts and their exit to the next stage of the competition.
