MUFC - FA Cup 2015, Preston North End (A)















BBC Sports' report on the match here. This paragraph summed up the game, in my view -

"After an hour, Van Gaal had seen enough. He hauled off the ineffective Falcao for Ashley Young in a change that helped turn the game in his side's favour. Young supplied the pass for Herrera's equaliser and Fellaini, pushed further forward as part of the switch, followed up his own saved header to power home United's winner from close range."

I only managed to catch the 2nd half. But it was clear that the Falcao substitution changed the game for the better.

It's a bit disturbing that Fellaini and Young seem to be United's main game-changers nowadays.

I'm just happy we're in the QFs, although if United doesn't find it's rhythm and tempo soon, we're gonna get f@*ked at OT.
