Man United 3-1 Reading- History-Making Goal by VAR - Duo Casemiro and Fred on Target at FA Cup Win

Manchester United 3-1 Reading: Brazilian midfield duo Casemiro and Fred on target for United as Erik ten Hag's team advance to the FA Cup fifth round but Marcus Rashford is denied a history-making goal by VAR.

Old Trafford was treated to a slice of Saturday night samba as Brazilians Casemiro and Fred ended Championship Reading's stubborn resistance in the FA Cup fourth round.

Casemiro struck twice in four minutes at the start of the second half before compatriot Fred got in the act to put the tie to bed.

History and form had suggested a home win at Old Trafford. Reading's only win against United was back in 1927 and they sit 16th in the Championship while Erik ten Hag's team is still fighting in four competitions.

Casemiro's intervention was too much for Carroll who slid out of control and caught the midfielder after 65 minutes to receive a red card.

Carroll, 34, apologized to Casemiro seeming to blame a slippery pitch but referee Darren England had no sympathy and showed the former Liverpool and Newcastle striker a second yellow.
