In the final match of the quarter-finals stage of the FA Cup, Manchester United and Liverpool clashed at Old Trafford. The hosts started the match more actively and could have opened the scoring as early as the 4th minute, but Kelleher saved Rashford's excellent shot. However, in the 10th minute, the goalkeeper was powerless against McTominay's strike: Scott was in the right place at the right time and reacted first to the rebound — 1-0.

Liverpool pushed forward in an attempt to quickly equalize, but Wataru Endō's goal was disallowed for offside. When it seemed that United would go into halftime leading, the "Reds" turned the game around. First, Mac Allister restored parity, and a few minutes later Salah put the visitors ahead.

In the second half, there were fewer dangerous moments, but the "Red Devils" managed to equalize and take the game to overtime. Anthony's precise strike brought them level.

In extra time, the teams exchanged goals, and it seemed like the match was heading for a penalty shootout. However, just before the final whistle, Amad Diallo's precise shot completed the hosts' counterattack and sent Manchester United into the semi-finals.
