Man Utd won the FA Cup 2-1 in what was a thrilling match in the last few minutes. Man Utd were attacking in the first-half but the score was level during the break. Antonio Valencia finally broke the deadlock in the 71st min with a fierce shot.

With time running out for Aston Villa, Man Utd fans were already celebrating but in the 89th min, a back pass error from Subotic allowed Darren Bent to seize the opportunity and equalised. Aston Villa were then playing for an extra-time and going into defensive mode but seconds before the final whistle, Wayne Rooney clinched the late winner with a screamer from 20 yards much to the delightful of Man Utd fans and the players.

Man Utd once again retain their FA Cup trophy for the second consecutive times. Good effort by the players.
