LONDON - 13 JAN -Manchester United edged past Arsenal 5-3 on penalties after a tense 1-1 draw in the FA Cup third round, despite being reduced to 10 men. Bruno Fernandes fired United ahead with a stunning strike in the 52nd minute, but Diogo Dalot’s red card soon after shifted momentum. Gabriel Magalhaes equalized for Arsenal, but a missed penalty by Martin Odegaard proved costly. In the shootout, Joshua Zirkzee delivered the winning kick, helping United avenge their Premier League loss to Arsenal in December.

Meanwhile,Tottenham survived a scare against fifth-tier Tamworth, eventually winning 3-0 after extra time. Nathan Tshikuna’s own goal in the 101st minute broke the deadlock, with Dejan Kulusevski and Brennan Johnson adding late goals to secure the win. Despite Tottenham’s lackluster performance, manager Ange Postecoglou expressed relief at advancing, while Tamworth’s Andy Peaks commended his team’s resilience. Elsewhere, Newcastle beat Bromley 3-1, Crystal Palace overcame Stockport 1-0, and Ipswich defeated Bristol Rovers 3-0.
