FA Cup Final: Man City 1-2 Man United, Updates, Score, Analysis, Highlights [Video]

Manchester United have defeated Manchester City 2-1 to win the 2024 FA Cup.

For the second consecutive year, the FA Cup final features a Manchester derby, with Manchester United facing off against Manchester City, who are heavily favored.

Last year, Man City secured a 2-1 victory in the final, clinching their second treble crown against their arch-rivals, the last English treble winners.

This season, City’s dominance has only widened, with them securing their fourth consecutive league title, leaving Man United trailing by 31 points.

The final is crucial for United’s manager, Erik ten Hag, as it might be his last chance to prove himself to the club’s new ownership and directors.

Failure to win could mean missing out on European competition next season, while a victory would secure a spot in the Europa League.

Despite their recent celebrations, Manchester City will be fully focused on extending their dominance over their derby rivals.

Their impressive form in the league, conceding only two goals in their final six games while scoring 20, has set the stage for a compelling final showdown.

The highlights of the match saw goals from Alejandro Garnacho in the 30th minute and Kobbie Mainoo in the 39th minute, putting Man United ahead 2-0.
