The FA Cup celebration thread

pretty happy for Mainoo and Garnacho. First cup for Hojlund too! We really deserved it today and was a real team effort.
 
Thrilled for everyone involved, also over the moon for Sir Alex. So very happy he was able to see that.
 
Got proper throat and chest pains after today. Already felt them around the 70 minute mark at the stadium but told myself that I couldn’t stop singing until we won :lol: Gave my flag away to a lad who really wanted it but got a match programme, multiple pictures with really lovely Mancunian reds and most importantly, the greatest memories as souvenirs that I’ll keep with me forever like the joy we did not expect to experience when we scored our goals.

All in all, the best day of my life, even with my throbbing throat and chest.

Hojlund is acting like a typical Dane drunk, I just hope he doesn't try to hammer some nails into a block of wood.

Shout out to Johnny Evans. He can’t have imagined when he re-signed in his twilight years, that he’d be on the pitch winning the FA Cup at the end of the season. Genuinely chuffed for him. What a way to go out on his career.

Same here, love the guy. So happy for him.

Glad you had a fantastic day and hopefully you're feeling better soon.

I met Andy once at Old Trafford. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a pain and bother him and ask him for a copy of United We Stand or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued through the Munich Tunnel, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came back to get through the turnstiles I saw him trying to kick through the gate without scanning his ticket.

The steward at the gate was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to scan your ticket first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and went back to the ticket scanner.

He tried scanning it multiple times, but he'd intentionally printed it with crap reflective ink that prevents the machine from reading it. He stopped her and told her to scan each inch of the QR code individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. Eventually the area started flooding with rain water so we all drowned, but Andy just laughed and flashed a bit of the City tattoo he's secretly got across his chest.

Excellent!
 
Some great pics of Rasmus looking absolutely absolutely battered.

There'll be a video of him in a takeaway getting a curry chip before the end of the night.
 
I live in Texas and four days ago I was debating if I should fly to London for the game. Just had a sense something special would happen. Then reason took over and thought to myself I could not stand a 5-0 thrashing.

Wish I was there in person but still it is such a great day in this dark season. I am watching replays of the game, surfing Instagram, reading tweets, and the list goes on.

Biggest team on the planet!
 
Just watched the highlights on BBC. Take aways were, :
- ETH does have a Plan B
- Mainoo is a young God
- Bruno needs to stay
- Pep is a t4wt
 


The iceman has a good night ahead of him
 
A moment that I loved was the pre match build up. Part of City’s organisation was a bit of a wind up at United; there video had a lot of City’s moments over United and actually had a clip of Fergie and then they put their ‘4 in a row’ banner up. United waited until just before kick off and then put up our banner which was a very long list of all our trophies which put City in their place.
 
I'm still celebrating now. So happy with the performance today. Brilliant all round!
 
Fantastic thread, I've literally just watched fans reactions and read everything about the game ever since it finished.

Just so so happy with the result and it was an incredible day.
 
It’s important to remember Men and Women’s FA Cup winners 2023/24 season

Both coming back from losing last years finals

Well done to both teams.
 
Just watched MOTD and was still nervous when they came forward . My son and daughter came round to watch the game with me but gone now, I've done a couple of quiet fist pumps , this bloody club of ours, absolutely love it.

Good man!
I had to work today but I brought the iPad in and used a VPN to watch on STV. I work in a record shop and I startled 5 customers when the 2nd goal went in!
Did a lap of the shop after full-time with the wife on the phone. Shop was empty then though haha.
I have a great memory of listening to the fa cup semifinal against Arsenal on the radio in bed before school in the morning back in 99. This will be up there with that!
