Match Report

Manchester United 3-1 Reading: Erik ten Hag's team spoiled Paul Ince's return to Old Trafford and advanced to the fifth round of the FA Cup.

Marcus Rashford looked to have opened the scoring in the first-half when his header narrowly crossed the line. But the would-be goal was ultimately ruled out as Wout Weghorst had been offside.

But Ten Hag's side would take the lead after the interval when Casmiro picked up on a through ball from Antony and slid the ball beyond Joe Lumley in the visitor's goal.

The Brazilian delighted the Old Trafford crowd by adding a second three minutes later with a magnificent strike from outside the box before Fred added a third.

Ince's side managed to secure a consolation when Amadou Mbengue connected with Tom Ince's corner to head the ball past David De Gea.
