LONDON — Manchester United won the FA Cup after stunning defending champion Manchester City 2-1 in the final at Wembley on Saturday. United’s first silverware of the season deprived crosstown rival City of the first back-to-back English league-cup doubles. United also qualified for the Europa League next season. The final was a repeat of last year’s which City won 2-1, and Pep Guardiola’s team did not give up its trophy without a fight.
Watching on were the United co-owners, Americans Joel and Avram Glazer and British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe. Speculation about Ten Hag’s future dominated the buildup and it was widely anticipated he would lose his job regardless of the result after overseeing United’s worst league season in 34 years. “It’s not about me, it’s about the team and winning the cup,” he said before kickoff. It was a very different story for City.
