Man United beat Tottenham to reach FA Cup final

Herrera scored the second-half victor at Wembley on Saturday as the Reds came from behind to beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 and reached a record-equalling 20th cup final.

Tottenham, playing on the ground which has been their temporary home all season, got off to a dream start on Sunday (NZ time) when Dele Alli scored from close range but Alexis Sanchez equalised with a header and Ander Herrera fired United's victor midway through the second half.

United got on level terms when ex-Arsenal man Alexis Sanchez headed beyond the reach of Michel Vorm after Paul Pogba expertly dispossessed Mousa Dembele in a unsafe position.

United and Chelsea have acquired a win apiece this campaign and the prospect of a final between them appears a distinct possibility.

Jose Mourinho insists Manchester United's season will be judged by finishing second in the Premier League, not winning the FA Cup.

It was the fifth straight FA Cup game at Wembley in which the Chile global has scored, with the previous four coming for Arsenal.

His passing from midfield was mostly purposeful and risk-free and was an important aspect of Spurs' dominance in the early stages of the semi-final.

Ander Herrera of Manchester United plays a through ball.

Then in the 62nd minute Lukaku directed onto Sanchez and then fortuitously flicked on the return ball, with Lingard leaving it for Herrera to rifle in.

Pogba redeemed himself for the gaffe that allowed Tottenham to score the opener.

Things started out promising for Spurs, who went up just 11 minutes on a Dele Alli goal. We registered a 2-1 victory on Spurs' "home ground".

The wait for the first trophy of the Pochettino era continues for another season.

"In the second half, good brains and good organisation - very confident and calm, very much in control even when Spurs had the ball".

For the second time, Sanchez and Paul Pogba appeared to be on the same wavelength and if Mourinho can establish some chemistry between the pair consistently, good times beckon for England's most successful club.

Trippier showed positivity in the first half, giving Young a testing period by going forward and linking with Eriksen. After the first half hour, they never truly looked to be in the match, having problems to getting to the grips of it. Mourinho's boys controlled everything, while Harry Kane was far from looking sharp.

United could also win the competition for a 13th time, the second-most among all clubs.

Mourinho, meanwhile, has criticised United's supporters on several occasions this season, with his gripes ranging from the lack of atmosphere at Old Trafford to the harsh reaction from fans to decisions made by Scott McTominay during matches. During his Arsenal career, the Chilean often reserved his best for games against Spurs or at Wembley, and a combination of the two saw him rekindle his form of old.

Instead, United was able to draw level.
