In a difficult match, Man Utd unexpectedly scored a goal from a moment of carelessness from their opponent. The referee reviewed the video and determined that Jack Grealish had committed a handball in the penalty area. Bruno Fernandes successfully converted the penalty to help Man Utd equalize.
Man City entered the second half on the attack and once again they scored early. From a free kick arranged with clear intention by Kevin De Bruyne, Gundogan volleyed from outside the box to put Man City ahead.
Coach Erik ten Hag's personnel and tactical adjustments did not help Man Utd improve the game. The Red Devils only had a chance in the final minutes when Man City retreated to defend. Man Utd were very close to scoring when McTominay's header hit the crossbar.
Man City won 2-1 and won the FA Cup. Coach Guardiola and his team have the chance to win the third title of the season when they face Inter Milan in the final of the C1 Cup - Champions League.

Besides his outstanding height, another important factor that helped Quang Kiet be tested by coach Hoang Anh Tuan on the attack line is his ability to handle the ball. Like many teammates from Hoang Anh Gia Lai Academy, the central defender born in 2007 was trained in ball control and coordination skills in a narrow area.
Coach Hoang Anh Tuan's decision to bring Dinh Quang Kiet up to play as a striker is a short-term solution for the U17 Asian Cup Finals. But if successful, it could be a turning point in the player's career.
