    Head-to-head

    This is the third FA Cup semi-final between the sides. Colin Harvey gave Everton a 1-0 win at Burnden Park in 1966 and the Toffees also went through on penalties after a 0-0 draw at Wembley in 2009.
    Overall, the clubs have been paired together 11 times in the cup, with Everton triumphant in six of those ties and United winning five.
    Manchester United have won three of the four most recent meetings (all in the league), winning both of this season's encounters without conceding a goal.

    Everton

    The Toffees have reached the FA Cup semi-finals for the 26th time - a tally bettered only by Manchester United and Arsenal (both 28, excluding replays). Everton have gone on to reach the final 13 times.
    They have won all four of their FA Cup games this season, scoring nine goals without reply.
    Romelu Lukaku has scored in each of his five FA Cup appearances for Everton (six goals in total).
    Everton have progressed in six of their last seven FA Cup semi-finals - the exception being their last appearance, a 2-1 defeat by Liverpool in 2012.

    Manchester United


    United are in the semi-finals for the 28th time. They've reached the final on 18 occasions - latterly in 2007.
    They have been eliminated in their last two FA Cup semi-final appearances, against Everton in 2009 and Manchester City in 2011. Before that they had progressed in 13 consecutive appearances at this stage between 1976 and 2007.
    They have won just four of their last 14 matches at Wembley (excluding matches won on penalties).
    United have not won an FA Cup game at Wembley since beating Newcastle in the 1999 final.
    They have won five of their last six games in all competitions.

    Well I'll be sat in front of this one cheering on both sides - its a no lose for Liverpool supporters! :D If Bobby get to the finals and wins it he might just hang on to his job, if Long Ball does likewise (and finish forth) it would be churlish to sack him.

    I reckon there could be quite a few goals in this. Everton'd defence won't be any better than on Wednesday but Lukaku shirley won't be as ineffective again while Rashford and Martial should make hay.

    Martinez is doing a terrible job at Everton

    Yes Dave, yes he is

    If anyone needs to take PEDs it's Danny Murphy, such a dour presence, might even make Michael Owen sound insightful by comparison.




  • Martial!!!

    What a run


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,592 ✭✭✭✭Hotblack Desiato


    Good from Martial

  • Terrible touch from lukaku...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,948 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Unbelievable from Rooney! Fosuh-Mensah really misjudged that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Sweet jaysus.. Brutal to let lukaku through there


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,606 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC

    Unbelievable Rooney

    The young lad really bottled that jump with Lukaku

    How the fudge did Martial keep that in!!




  • Martial :)

    Unlucky, poor last touch


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,948 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Some of the young lads are really bringing their A game. Shame Rashford didn't hit that earlier


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,858 ✭✭✭Manutd_4life


    Ah Lingard good effort

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,790 ✭✭✭Bret Hart


    Typical Lingard,absolute bottler.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Very tight angle unfortunetly. Lovely from rooney


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,948 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    That's a tough one to finish. The keeper has a lot of time to eye it up when it's lobbed in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,595 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Should have been a goal scored there

  • Rooney started really well

    Great forward passing tbf

    Lukaku's touch is shocking today


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    God lukaku was in way too easy there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,136 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Lukaku will score the next one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,595 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Lukaku's touch is shocking today

    He doesn't want to annoy his future employers

    Lukaku is bottling this. Don't even pretend he'll make amends for his two awful first touches.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,846 ✭✭✭✭Liam McPoyle


    We are so bad at corners.




  • Big miss ****


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,858 ✭✭✭Manutd_4life


    Martial! Keep calm mate


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,948 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Ah ffs Martial


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Ah ffs, hit the target. Missing so many chances :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,595 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Come on at least put it on target from there!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,948 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Ah Rooney has forgotten how to use his left leg


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,606 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Same as the last time we played Everton. lukaku completely isolated, and their entire game plan seems to be to hoof it up to him....




  • Movement is good today

    Rooney quick to pick out the runners
