Marcel Sabitzer scored his first goal for Manchester United on Sunday – and he did it in a spectacular way. The Austrian football team player scored 3-1 in United’s FA Cup quarter-finals at Old Trafford against Fulham after a Stangl pass by Luke Shaw with his heel to make it 2-1 (77th).
Fulham had taken the lead through Aleksandar Mitrovic (50th), but then the Serb and Willian were ruled out in the 72nd minute. Bruno Fernandes made it 1-1 from a penalty (75th) and also ensured the final score (96th minute). .). ManUnited will now meet Brighton in the semi-finals at Wembley Stadium, with Manchester City and Sheffield United playing the second semi-final. Sabitzer then spoke of a “very important win. We wanted to go to Wembley Stadium and we made it,” said the midfielder, who is expected at the ÖFB camp on Monday. United didn’t win because of Fulham’s lack of concentration and lack of discipline, Sabitzer stressed. “We scored three goals, she one. We were focused and came back after going behind.”
