Fun Facts in Football #2


Manchester United beat Brighton in Penalty Shootout to qualify for the FA Cup Finals and will face Manchester City.

 This was the first time the Red Devils won via a penalty shootout since their win against Rochdale in the 2019/2020 Carabao Cup.

 The Victory also meant that Manchester United and Manchester City will clash for the first time in an FA Cup Final.
 Before this, there has never been an all-manchester final in the competition, so it's safe to say, this set of players has created history.


 Speaking of histories, Newcastle was able to score 5 goals in the opening 21 minutes against Tottenham, which is the second only to holders Manchester City, who scored 5 in 18 against Watford in 2019.


 Juventus are currently sitting in 3rd place in the Serie A with 59 points after their 15 points deduction was overturned.


 Sticking with Serie A, Rafael Leao registered his 11th and 12 league goal of the campaign today, which made it his best goal-scoring year in the league.

 Last season, he had 11 goals but just broke his record and could still add more to it.


 Wrexham secured their promotion to EFL from the National League for the first time in 15 years after winning their league Cup.
 Seeing the fans rejoice and the players and coaches humiliate alongside Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhennery was emotional.
Napoli has done the double against Juventus in the Serie A for the first time since the 2009/2010 season.
