Manchester United picked up an incredible win in the FA Cup quarter-final on Sunday as they edged out rivals Liverpool 4-3.

The Red Devils boss brought up the refereeing blunders from their Arsenal clash earlier in the season as he claimed that his team did not have the right moment until now to stage a comeback.
Speaking to reporters, Ten Hag said, "Could be but we missed so many opportunities. For instance, at Arsenal, in the fourth game of the season, in the 87th minute, we should have had a penalty on Rasmus Hojlund. Then we scored with Garnacho, disallowed and then we conceded a goal which should always have been disallowed. Such moments help you. Every team needs such moments and we never had that moment and this could be that moment."
