Victor Torp’s “winner” sent scores of United fans scurrying for the exits before they realised the goal had been ruled out for a marginal offside.Even then there was still time for more drama, with Casemiro failing to convert United’s first penalty in the shootout before they eventually prevailed 4-2.
Harry Maguire, the only fit central defender at the club, said United showed “great character” to find a way past Coventry, managed by former Red Devils striker Mark Robins.The Dutchman appeared to be on an upward curve in his first season in charge in 2022/23, ending a six-year trophy drought by lifting the League Cup and finishing third in the Premier League.
United are engaged in a wholesale shake-up of their backroom team under new co-owner Jim Ratcliffe, who must make a decision on whether he has seen enough from the former Ajax boss to give him another chance. Ten Hag can point to a punishing list of injuries to his defenders but must take some responsibility for the way several key players including Casemiro, Marcus Rashford and Antony have badly underperformed this season.
