Craig HillMan Utd and Middlesbrough through to FA Cup Quarter Final
February 28th 2007 03:27
Manchester United and Middlesbrough will meet each other in the quarter finals of the FA Cup with wins against Reading and West Brom respectively overnight.
The Red Devils made a blistering start with all three goals in the first six minutes of the game coming from defender Gabriel Heinze and strikers Louis Saha and Ole Gunnar Solksjaer.
Reading refused to give up after this catastrophic set-back and took the game to the Premier League leaders by scoring two goals in but eventually came up short on what would have been a come-back of seismic proportions.
Middlesbrough again had to thank Socceroos striker Mark Viduka for scoring the vital equaliser that sent the game into extra-time and then penalties.
With both sides locked at 1-1 after extra-time, penalties loomed and Boro went on to win 5-4 in the shoot-out to setup a quarter final clash against Manchester United at home.
