Man Utd 2-1 Tottenham – FA Cup – Highlights

January 24th, 2009 | 14 Comments | Posted in FA Cup

Manchester United scored two goals in a minute to come from behind and knock Tottenham out of the FA Cup.

0-1 Pavlyuchenko 5′

1-1 Scholes 34′

2-1 Berbatov 36′

Roman Pavlyuchenko’s header from Tom Huddlestone’s cross put Spurs ahead, but they were pinned back after that.

Carlos Tevez was twice denied, first by Ben Alnwick’s excellent save and later by the crossbar, before Paul Scholes equalised with a low, deflected shot.

Dimitar Berbatov rifled in after latching on to Michael Carrick’s superb lofted pass to seal United’s comeback.

In midweek Spurs came out on top after a terrific fightback by Burnley to reach the Carling Cup final – where they will meet United – but the Londoners were unable to repeat the trick.

United proved too slick, too strong and too incisive for their visitors, who seemed to surprise themselves when they drew first blood after only five minutes.

Pavlyuchenko beat Nemanja Vidic to Tom Huddlestone’s cross and glanced a header into the far corner to give Spurs a dream start.
