| Manchester United celebrate win over Chelsea |
Manchester United dump Chelsea out of the FA Cup and proceeded into the Quarter final after a 2-0 win away at Stamford bridge.
Ander Herrera and Paul Pogba scored for the Red Devils to give United a hope of a trophy this season. Bad day in office yet again for Mauricio Sarri's side failing to bring any offer to the table with only two shots on target that both came in the 11th minute despite having the larger percentage of possession on the night.
It will be a surprise if Sarri finishes the season with Chelsea after the Italian man continues to prove rigid towards a call for change in his style of play. Chelsea fans are furious and are only waiting to get the news of his sacking after a run of poor results in 2019 that has seen them lost five of the last 10 matches after having only lost five in their previous 41 games.
Manchester United are the first side since 1998-99 to dump both Arsenal and Chelsea out of the FA Cup in a single season.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has now won 11 of his 13 games in charge of United, one more than Jose Mourinho did in 24 games this season before he was sacked.
Only Tottenham's Heung-min Son has had a hand in more goals than Paul Pogba since Solskjaer took over at United on December 19, 2018. Son has had a hand in 16 while Pogba has had a hand in 15.
Manchester United will now face Wolves away from home in the Quarter final of the FA Cup this campaign while their close rivals Manchester City who are on the course for a quadruple will visit Swansea.
