What a game.
Manchester United made it through to their first FA Cup Final in nine years this evening and they did so in the most dramatic circumstances after a last-gasp victory over Everton at Wembley.
Anthony Martial scored the decisive goal in injury time at the end of the second half after a Chris Smalling own goal deservedly brought Everton level midway with 15 minutes left.
Everton old boy Marouane Fellaini had put United in front in a first half in which they dominated, but the Toffees fought back in the second half and missed a penalty through Romelu Lukaku, whose spot-kick was brilliantly saved by David de Gea.
Full of drama throughout, it was a compelling encounter from start to finish; here’s some of the best reaction to a magnificent game.

Everton didn't deserve that on the 2nd half performance. Martial is a star & LVG is staying!

That was more like the United of old. Chances galore, slightly chaotic at the back, make it hard for themselves then a last minute winner

Brilliant advertisement for the #FACup. Rollercoaster drama. Two famous clubs giving everything. Passionate support. The Cup still matters.

Poor United fans.
Van Gaal will now pull a Wenger by winning a 2nd tier trophy & staying on.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) April 23, 2016
