Former striker Dimitar Berbatov believes Manchester United should still be alive and kicking in this season's FA Cup after a controversial equaliser contributed to their 8-7 penalty shootout defeat to Middlesbrough on Friday evening at Old Trafford.
United, who had missed an earlier penalty through Cristiano Ronaldo, saw Jadon Sancho's first half strike cancelled out by Boro midfielder Matt Crooks shortly past the hour mark, when he slid in from close quarters to bring Chris Wilder's side level.
The ball fell into Crooks' path after Isaiah Jones' cross-field ball found Duncan Watmore inside the penalty area, only for him to control it off of his right foot and onto his left hand, before chipping it to his right to find Crooks.
