Harry Maguire is the hero as Manchester United cling past Leicester in FA Cup | FA CUP

Harry Maguire: From up to sale two summers side side to redemption ended via a 93 minute noddy winner. If the defender was obviously offside when he met Bruno Fernandes’ spiralizing free kick from the left, he didn’t care, nor anyone who loves how sports can throw a romantic story like his.

Before the urgency of Maguires intervention, Joshua Zirkzee’s equalization appeared at 67 minutes that Lifeline United were needed to keep a shaky FA Cup defense alive.

After the best Leicester 8-2 gathered at two previous meetings with their visitors, United were what they are constantly under Ruben Amorim: incoherent. Introduction of the jet-heeled Alejandro Garnacho on the break transformed home assets when he was the key in the strike of Zirkze. But dice being removed by opponents with 12 points fewer and candidates for relegation cannot happen as was the case after Bobby de Cordova-Reid’s first half opener.

But Cometh added time, Cometh Maguire, whose intervention would have been scrubbed out if there had been a video assistant judge and whether James Justin should have been punished for handball for Fernandes’s free kick, can also be discussed.

A porous rear guard is one of the countless problems that plagues united, so when Patson Daka out-froxed Leny Yoro and Maguire and Teed Jordan Ayew early alarm bells adhered. No. 18’s efforts were tough and right by André Masturbation, and the home goalkeeper saved.

The moment United turned up the heat: A Crossfield Diogo Dalot Pass sent Patrick Dorgu Sprint Upfield and United claimed a corner to the right. This was the flank Amorim fielded Dorgu on, rather than the expected Left, Dane’s debut, which offers a first view of the main coach’s first recruits in action.

Amorim explained: “If you see Dorgu’s story in the last team, he played a lot on the right. Sometimes you need a left foot on the right side to connect in another way. “

The 20-year-old, which was signed in the winter window for £ 25 million. From Lecce, was a promising blend of pace, neat touches and strength from either boot, as with a right -footed effort directed too high.

Still, Dorgu’s opening period was the United’s only glimpse of brightness. Instead, the Premier League’s third-bottom side had the driving force, a de Cordova-Reid burst again that turned the home.

Amorim either fell to his haunches in despair or shook his head. Concern also went through the 40-year-old when Ayew, Ayew, Down Leicester’s left side, turned the ball to Luke Thomas, and he was aiming for a delivery of the Noussair Mazraoui heading for a corner. When Thomas hit this in from the real Mazraoui, rejected again.

Crumbs was the attacking fare that was served by United. A Dorgu -Foray claimed that a corner, Amad Diallo pinged it in, Hermansen grabbed the ball, fell, the United players nearby were excited, then the keeper was back.

Now: Joy of Ruud Van Nistelrooy’s men and the familiar sense of despair for amorims. First, Bilal El Khannous’s Manuel Ugarte knocked from the ball. His cross, from the left, was stabbed target by Wilfred Ndidi, masturbation saved, but the keeper saw the ball go in off de Cordova-Reid.

Once again, United were cut through as if juniors who played a seniors page. Smart from Leicester, unhappy from the opponent who admitted 41 minutes, and when Michael Salisbury blew during the break, the whistle was followed by the sound of Boos from an extremely unhappy Old Trafford congregation.

In the second half, Dorgu was replaced by Garnacho in a switching that had Diallo that took the dance dock. A strange decision from Amorim to remove his team’s only flicker of hope? Certainly, unless it was about the player having taken a bank or only 45 minutes into him as he moves up to speed with his colleagues.

Garnacho immediately burned down the left and spread Leicester: A fine start, but he failed to find a teammate, and once again poured out a united attack. Leicester had more fizz. Ugarte, who endured a bad screen, couldn’t stop the live-leading El Khannouss swung around him, and at No. 11 went, United just about stopping Daka, who flourished from the wings.

Clockwise that runs down the proprietors’ chances, Amorim removed Kobbie Maino for Zirkzee and within moments, Ugarte sent Garnacho. At close range, he was unloading, the ball ricoked a wout fae’s trunk over Hermansen, but Caleb Okoli smashed the ball against the bar and the keeper grabbed it.

Soon Garnachos Zest the Leveler created via a shoulder drop and Killer Ball I: Rasmus Hølund’s shot was blocked and zirkzee ended. Towards the end, Garnacho had a golden chance to create one of the forward but failed.

But now Maguire stepped up. He said, “A good finish for the game. The other half we played much better. The first half was nowhere near good enough. We probably deserved to go in half -time loss. “
