Maguire’s Stoppage-Time Header Sends Manchester United into FA Cup Fifth Round

Manchester United booked their place in the FA Cup fifth round with a dramatic 2-1 victory over Leicester City at Old Trafford. Harry Maguire sealed the win with a stoppage-time header, securing passage to the next stage for Man United in controversial fashion.

The match seemed destined for extra time after Joshua Zirkzee’s equalizer, but Maguire's goal – which had VAR been in use, might have been ruled offside – proved decisive.

Leicester Strike First as Manchester United Trail at Half-Time

Ruud van Nistelrooy, returning to Old Trafford for the first time since his interim spell, saw his side take the lead just before the break.

• Bilal El Khannouss delivered a precise cross into the box.
• Wilfred Ndidi’s shot forced a save from Andre Onana, but the ball rebounded perfectly for Bobby De Cordova-Reid, who headed Leicester in front.

Despite some strong attacking efforts from Manchester United, they trailed 1-0 at halftime.

Man United’s Second-Half Comeback

Manchester United F.C. came out strong after the break, searching for an equalizer.

• Alejandro Garnacho’s shot was cleared off the line by Caleb Okoli in a crucial defensive moment for Leicester.
• In the 68th minute, Rasmus Hojlund’s flick found Joshua Zirkzee, who tapped into an empty net to level the score at 1-1.

With the match looking set for extra time, Man Utd found a late winner.

Maguire’s Last-Minute Winner Secures Victory

In the 93rd minute, Bruno Fernandes delivered a perfect free-kick to the far post.

• Harry Maguire, unmarked and appearing to be in an offside position, rose to meet the ball and headed it into the net.
• With no VAR in use until the fifth round, the goal stood, sending MUFC into the next stage of the FA Cup.

The win extends Manchester United FC’s push for silverware, with their sights set on another deep cup run.
