United came from a goal down to earn a deserved 2-1 win against Brighton in
the FA Youth Cup third round on Thursday.
Anton Bryan and Federico Macheda got the goals to see the Reds through, but
it looked at one point as if Brighton might snatch an unlikely victory.
United set off at a quick pace and had the first real chance after 15 minutes
at the Victoria Stadium, Northwich. Danny Welbeck's flick-on from a corner
found skipper Corry Evans free, whose header was powerful but straight at the
Brighton goalkeeper.
Five minutes later defender Scott Moffatt went agonisingly close with a
header from Magnus Eikrem's precise cross.
The Reds looked sharp and had played the better of the football, but Brighton
scored against the run of play when defender Lee Bryant scrambled home a
corner after 29 minutes.
United's impressive strikers Welbeck and Macheda were causing havoc for the
Brighton defence. Their interchanging play conjured an opening for England
U17 international Welbeck, but he didn't connect with his shot, which
drifted wide.
If the Reds were unlucky to be a goal down at the break, they were even
unluckier not to have equalised through midfielder Danny Drinkwater a minute
after the restart. Arriving late in the box onto Danny Galbraith’s left-wing
cross, Drinkwater cracked his shot against the post.
Ten minutes later Drinkwater struck the other post. Lurking on the edge of
the area, he chested down Moffatt’s cross and hit a sweet left-foot volley
that cannoned back off the upright.
With fifteen minutes of the match remaining United looked to be heading for
an early and undeserved exit, despite dominating the entire second half. But
after a prolonged period camped in the Brighton final third, the pressure
finally paid off. Substitute Anton Bryan turned well on the edge of the box
and fired his shot into the bottom corner. It was nothing more than United
deserved.
And five minutes later a second arrived courtesy of Macheda. The Italian
striker raced through on goal and was brought down by the goalkeeper. Macheda
dusted himself down and, after seeing his spot-kick saved, scored at the
second attempt.
For a while it looked like the Reds might not make it through to the fourth
round, but Paul McGuinness' young side showed character, determination to
earn the win and a fourth round tie at home to Carlisle United.
