The match between Coventry and the opposing team at Wembley was intense, with Coventry making a dramatic comeback by scoring three times in the last 25 minutes. The substitute Victor Torp seemed to secure a place in the final with a goal in the 121st minute, but it was ruled out after a VAR decision deemed Haji Wright offside in the build-up. This left Coventry fans disappointed as they began their journey back to the midlands.
The marginal nature of the call, where Aaron Wan-Bissaka was possibly fortunate as the last defender, evoked strong emotions from supporters. Many were left wondering if Manchester United or Manchester City would emerge as the victors of this year’s FA Cup, and expressed frustration at the impact of VAR on what could have been one of the greatest semi-final comebacks in history. On the other hand, fans of the opposing team, Manchester United, were predictably elated with the decision and the overall outcome of the match.
