Ten Hag says while United are on the rise, defeating their rivals could save their season
-
LONDON Erik ten Hag believes Manchester United's thrilling 4-3 FA Cup quarter-final victory over Liverpool can be the launching pad for a successful end to a troubled season for the Red Devils.
United's final chance at silverware this season appeared to be slipping away at Old Trafford on March 17, as twice the hosts needed to come from behind late on to end Liverpool's chances of a quadruple in Jurgen Klopp's final season.
Amad Diallo's breakaway goal in extra time won a chaotic tie in the 121st minute and could prove to be a turning point in ten Hag's reign.
United are now huge favourites to reach the FA Cup final for a second consecutive season, after being paired with Championship side Coventry City in the last four. Holders Manchester City play Chelsea in the other semi-final.
Ten Hag had been under rising pressure as his side sit sixth in the English Premier League, nine points adrift of the top four. They also exited early in both the Champions League and League Cup.
However, the former Ajax Amsterdam boss believes his side are on an upward trajectory, having lost just twice in 12 games in 2024.
