FA Cup: Manchester United 2-1 Reading

19 February 2013 at 13:10

Manchester United eased into the FA Cup quarter-finals with a convincing 2-1 win over Reading. Goals from Nani and Javier Hernandez meant United could still entertain the dream of completing the Treble, even after a late goal made for a tense final ten minutes.

The visitors were put under a lot of pressure in the first half, and credit must go to Brian McDermott's team after they walked of at half time with the game still goalless. United's only worry in the first half was the injury sustained by Phil Jones after a clash with Jobi McAnuff. The United defender limped off, not to return, and the injury will be of some concern to Alex Ferguson.

United came out strong in the second half, with Reading keeper Federici stopping shots from Anderson and Nani, and Hunt clearing a Vidic header off the line. Nani finally hit the back of the net after collecting a pass from Valencia and putting it past Federici in the 69th minute. Reading almost equalised immediately after, with Le Fondre forcing an impressive save by De Gea. Hernandez scored a few minutes later from a Nani cross to put United up 2-0. McAnuff pulled one back in the 81st minute to put everyone watching on the edge of their seats, but United prevailed and will now meet either Chelsea or Middlesborough at home in the next round.

    Superb! Easy to purchase a ticket. I had a live customer service chat once, the staff member was so polite, helpful and informative. I loved the communication after purchase. On the match day they contacted me on WhatsApp if I want an upgrade on my tickets for free and after my confirmation I got my tickets within a minute. Great experience, thank you.

    This is the best and most trusted website to get your tickets to any world event. I have used them 3 times throughout the years, I have used other sites for football matches and they are so transparent and fast, the first time I used them was in 2018 for a Roma match and then made the mistake to use a different site for the PSG match in April and they were terrible, from the website, customer service and responses. this is the only site I trust and use!

    Bought 2 Club Wembley tickets less than 48 hours before the Championship Play Off Final. Good communication and tickets arrived the following day by email. No problems getting into the stadium and seats were great. Unfortunately my team’s performance was the only let down. Would definitely use this company again.

    It was easier than I thought to find a group of seven seats together and very simple to book. Communication was excellent, the tickets were sent quickly and were easy to access, so no problems at the stadium. Seats were good and we had a great view. Everything worked well and I'll definitely be back for tickets again - many thanks!
