Manchester United will face arch-rivals Manchester City in the FA Cup final after beating Brighton 7-6 on penalties in Sunday’s semi-final.
Erik ten Hag’s side played out a hard-fought 0-0 draw with Brighton that went to extra-time at Wembley.
Heartbreaking for Brighton and Solly March, the only one of 14 penalty takers to miss, United go through 7-6 in the shoot-out. #BHAFC #MUFC #EmiratesFACup
