The incident occurred not long before full time, resulting in a four-minute pause in play. A supporter in the home section fell ill and required treatment by club doctors, who responded quickly after being alerted to the situation. United’s medical team also offered to assist, but the supporter was ultimately removed from the stadium for safety reasons and taken for a check-up.
In addition to the incident, the team held on to a narrow 3-2 lead heading into the final few minutes of the match. They initially went 2-0 ahead in the first half, with goals from Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo, but were then pegged back twice. The home fans were sent wild when Will Evans scored an equaliser, but United regained the lead on 67 minutes through Antony. This victory, only United’s third since the end of November, secured their passage to the fifth round of the competition, where they will face the winners of Bristol City and Nottingham Forest.
