Anthony Martial has been ruled out of Saturday's FA Cup final after straining his hamstring in Manchester United's final game of the season.
Martial has been deployed as United's starting striker in recent weeks, taking the place of loanee Wout Weghorst in the Red Devils' line-up. The Frenchman was rested for United's win over Fulham last week in their final match before facing rivals Manchester City in the showpiece event at Wembley.
He came off the bench to play the final 23 minutes of the Premier League clash, which United won 2-1 thanks to goals from Jadon Sancho and Bruno Fernandes. That appeared to be part of plan to ensure he would be fit for the clash with City this coming Saturday.
