Manchester United marched into the semi-finals of the FA Cup with victory over Brighton at Old Trafford on Saturday evening.

Jose Mourinho watched his side overcome their visitors thanks to a goal in each half from Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic.

The pair combined to open the scoring on 37 minutes when the Serbian hung up an inviting cross for his Belgian colleague to nod home from point-blank range.

After Brighton threatened to restore parity throughout much of the second period, Matic killed off any chance of extra time and penalties with a header of his own seven minutes from time.

The Red Devils’ 2-0 win means they now await to see which of Wigan, Southampton, Chelsea and Leicester will join them and Tottenham in the last four.

Mourinho is facing some heat for delivering a rather poor return on investment during his first two seasons in Manchester to date.

The Old Trafford faithful have celebrated at least one trophy in all but two of the previous 13 seasons and will be desperate to keep the silverware coming.

With their Champions League campaign in tatters as of Tuesday and the Premier League title long out of reach, United must win the FA Cup to avoid ending this season empty-handed.

In fact, some supporters are even asking the FA to change a competition rule that’s been in place for the last decade.

A high-capacity neutral venue such as Villa Park, Hillsborough or Old Trafford was chosen for each of the penultimate knockout ties prior to 2008.

As has since been the case, however, Wembley will play host to this year’s semi-finals, prompting accusations of Tottenham holding an unfair advantage.

Spurs have used the national stadium as their temporary home this season and will continue to do so until their new ground is finished, which is expected to be in time for the 2018-19 campaign.

United fans certainly aren’t happy about the prospect of taking on the north London club at Wembley – a fixture in which they lost 2-0 in January.

Check out some of the reaction below:

There’s a case to be made for how the Red Devils and the two other semi-finalists might feel about the situation.

But then again, it’s worth remembering nobody minded playing Spurs at Wembley when they were struggling in the early stages of the season.
