Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag has hailed his players after they beat Liverpool 4-3 in the FA Cup quarter-final on Sunday.
Amad Diallo scored in the last moments of extra-time at Old Trafford, as the Red Devils won one of the greatest FA Cup ties ever.
Liverpool were minutes away from qualifying on two occasions – leading going into the 87th minute of normal time and again in the 112th minute of extra-time – only for United to conjure up two equalisers and an astonishing winner.
“The first 35 minutes I think was the best minutes from our season,” Ten Hag told ITV.
“We were really there, acting as a team. But then gaps in between the lines and you can’t allow this against Liverpool. Then they outplay you.
“And also after half-time, it continues.
“We had to change. We went into the risk, we went into one against one, and the players were wonderful – the mentality, the attitude was so great.
“They had strong belief to win this game. We went for it and we got it.”
