Manchester United's latest game-changer makes a difference in win before Fulham's three red cards

Manchester United were involved in the five-minute final in 1979 and this was the five-minute quarter-final. Fulham clutched defeat from the jaws of victory in a madcap and chaotic five minutes in scenes more befitting a WWE event.

In those five minutes, there were three red cards, two goals and one penalty. Both goals went in at the Stretford End, which witnessed another remarkable recovery from United.

"We're on the march with Ten Hag's army, we're all going to Wembley," they chorused at full-time. After nearly five years without a trip to the national stadium, United's followers will be back on April 23 in the semi-finals.
