I believe they might equalize the game. Amad has really been impressive in this game, he was able to take advantage of the mistake by the Tottenham goal keeper to make it 3-2.
Manchester United looked like they were going to equalize the goal, but before they were able to get the third goal, Son scored from the Corner Kick, and that was enough to win the game. I do not think Bayindir will get more chances with Amorim because he conceded too much goals today, Onana has not been all good without a fault, but I am sure he would maybe have not conceded as much goals as Bayindir did. Amad is becoming the star of Manchester United, there is so much hope for United whenever he is playing. The good thing with every game Amorim manages is that he is having a clearer picture of his first XI for the now and the places he needs to upgrade in the January transfer chance.
Yeah the Manchester United goal keeper was really a major set back on the team, conceded some goals he could have ordinarily saved. Manchester United played well as some point because they felt they've been hit too hard so they needed to get back into the game which they actually did, but they where not covering up thier defence line too well, because the first mistake was allowing those goals and Tottenham is one team that is very exceptional in capitalizing on your mistakes because they have a formidable front line team especially the likes of Son and James maddison.
As for Amorim, it's evidently clear that he is already setting up his first Xl and he has decided to seemingly drop some players of high repute in the team.

I were not surprised to see how they bottled their chance to beat Totenham. Like what i emphasized it on the different thread, Man United has its defenders as their liability.

If they won't solve this, they will struggle to win any games in EPL.
Yea, you are actually right and I also share the same sentiment as you bro, that's just the major problem of Manchester united, since Amorin walk in as the manager of Manchester united, they have improved in every other aspect of their game except their defending, how can they win, especially against a top team like Tottenham when they are conceiving such a huge amount of goal?
Just look at the kind of cheap goals their defense is giving away, how can they compete when they are giving away cheap goal away?
Till their defense is fixed, I really don't think they can go anywhere or win anything tangible because the rate at which they are conceding goals is like mobbing the floor of water while the tap is still on, so till they fix that, that's when half of the problem is solved.

What the fuck with this match lol.

Both goalkeepers are really like a clown, most of the goals are because of their mistakes.

I think this is the reason why we see Onana always become starter, because the other goalkeepers are really bad, Onana was better than Bayindir.
even though Manchester united looked better from the recent games they have played, i knew that this was going to be an exiting point for them. the defense and goal of of Manchester united have been one major issue the club is still facing because even if you make use of onana, he will still make some avoidable mistakes or even if he did not make any mistakes, his defense line will make mistakes for him which will cost the team to struggle in the game. 

with man united already out, arsenal have to buckle things up and ensure that they get to win this tournament even though all four teams that are in the semi finals are huge threat that have what it takes to winning the tournament. even though new castle might look like a thing that is not a strong contender for the final crown but when you look at how resilience they can be, you just have to be careful to know that for any team that will be paired with them in the semi finals, they have to sweat through it if they hope on getting through them victoriously.

Congratulations for your win though I understand you don't want to gamble on Manchester United vs Tottenham match because it's definitely difficult to choose. Gladly 3 out of 4 my predictions went true, honestly not really surprising because those match are easy to predict.

Out of nowhere, Gabriel Jesus scored hat trick for Arsenal, as we know he rarely score since he joined Arsenal.

In the upcoming match, Arteta might replace Havertz with Jesus.
Yes and it quite satisfying, but speaking of today match Tottenham vs Manchester United is quite interesting, haha ​​Tottenham played very well as team playing at home and Manchester United was also able to put up resistance and try to keep up even though in the end they could only get 3 goal to catch up.
For the semifinal match I just hope Liverpool and Arsenal don't meet because my prediction is they have to meet in the final and really make big and dramatic final match because now both are rivals, who do you think will win the title?
I bet on Liverpool to win the EFL Cup this season.

However, this win is really deserved for Tottenham, the goal by Son is really amazing.

The final match would be Arsenal vs Liverpool.

The substitutions by Amorim in the second half made a lot of difference for Manchester United. It looked like Manchester United were the better side in the second half. Manchester United fought back from three goals down to a position where it looked like a draw was imminent unfortunately they were unlucky tonight. A lot of mistakes from the goalies today. What a night!

Some subs by Amorim were contributing a lot during the second half, but they still lost. They almost made a comeback, but failed.

I were not surprised to see how they bottled their chance to beat Totenham. Like what i emphasized it on the different thread, Man United has its defenders as their liability.

Manchester United is not really back yet and anyone having so much expectations from them is not being fair to the new coach Ruben Amorim who just took over and yet to fully build a competitive team. Although, the condition of United does not give room for much experiments, we must know that time is a factor and it is in playing real matches that strategies are tested and perfected. Therefore, I'm not totally disappointed at the irregular performance of Manchester United unlike you who felt they ought to win tonight because they won struggling Manchester City in their last match. They played very well but were just a little unlucky that was why Tottenham took advantage of the situation.
Manchester United suffered a surprisingly 4-3 defeats to Tottenham Hotspur. It was one of the hectic nights to see Manchester United so close on winning the title and now watching them been knocked out of the tournament by Spurs. This is really concerning for Ruben Amorim because he's been prominent signing for the club, he understands the factors and put more hope in his players, it's just matter of time to see the upbringing tactics of these players.

The Red Devils will bounce back next season, they've more tasks to fulfilled like qualifying for UCL next season and also winning games to puts back the formidable standard of elite force. Manchester United have been in some deep decline in performance and also growing to be in top force of winning games.

So, we have Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle, and Tottenham for the semifinal. Who has a chance to be knocked out?
The drawing for the semifinal number will take place after the Tottenham vs. MU match. Everyone expects Arsenal and Liverpool to not meet yet in the semifinal because both clubs will be interesting to watch in the Final EFL Cup at Wembley. the possibility of surprises will exists if Newcastle, and Tottenham keep hold their performance on the semifinal.
I feel that Tottenham will make a surprise for the tournament, but if they happen on the final only, and meet Liverpool. because I saw their fighting spirit for this tournament is very high. I feel their goal for this session is the trophy EFL cup 2024/25.

Definitely not Liverpool because I think Liverpool has a great chance to bring home the EFL trophy based on their performance so far, but it is possible that there will be a surprise in the semifinals if Liverpool meets Arsenal because Arsenal may be determined to win even though their condition in the EPL is not as good as Liverpool.
I did not expect Manchester United to be eliminated in the quarter-finals by being defeated by Tottenham because I thought Man United would be a challenger until the final but unfortunately his struggle has ended.

Tottenham is currently leading Manchester United by 3-0; this means they are almost through to the semifinal because Manchester United will hardly level or get a comeback in this game as it stands, but anything can happen let’s wait and see how it ends.
Just when everyone thought that Manchester United will play Tottenham with same spirit and strategy they used for Manchester City last week but they have given us a reason not to trust them yet. Tottenham humiliating Manchester United by 3:0 is really not encouraging, who knows what the match will finally end because Tottenham can still score more goals and Manchester United may not be able to comeback even though they have managed to score one goal now and the score is 3:1. Anyways, the end justify the means so let's see if they can perform any magic as they did against Manchester City in their premier league game last week.

Wow, 7 goals were scored, Amorim failed to bring Man United to the Carabao Cup semifinals, both teams showed their best game, but Tottenham was more dominant this time.

Here are the results of the 2024/25 Carabao Cup semi-final draw:
Arsenal vs Newcastle.
Tottenham vs Liverpool.

The poultry derby will bring together Tottenham vs Liverpool, while in the other match it will be a revenge match for Arsenal who lost to Newcastle in the EPL this season.
Who made it to the finals?

Amorim gambled with his starting eleven and that cost him the game. I understand that he was trying to rotate the team but this is quarter final for christ sake and a shot at winning a trophy this season, so why not play the best players? Not starting Amad was a mistake, partnering Ugarte and Ericson in the midfield was a another mistake. Casimero or Maino would have done a better job than Ericson. Maino, Amad and Zirkzee second half intro indeed changed the game and United put up a good fight but it was too difficult to come back after going 3 goals down.

He featured a clown in the goal post and we all saw it. I believe he will learn from his mistakes.
I wouldn't blame the goal keeper for son's goal. if VAR was used in game, the goal would have been disallowed because there was contact with his left arm.

I do not intend to praise Amorim tonight because I think he is the architect of Manchester United elimination. At first, the changes wouldn't have been. Those set of players that he introduced in the second half are the players he was supposed to start the match with. He changed the team to a great extent and forgot he was playing Tottenham. He featured a clown in the goal post and we all saw it. I believe he will learn from his mistakes.

Is it safe to say that the Gunners have gotten their grrove back or is this because its the EFL that's why they were able to perform well? Either reason they choose to give,

It's not yet safe to call Gunners regained their form. They performed differently than they did at PL, and i wonder what's wrong with them.  Cheesy Cheesy They seem not even care much to the PL title.

I feel congratulations are in order for Gabriel Jesus for being able to find his mojo and give the Gunners are a ticket to move to the semi finals at the Emirates stadium alongside Liverpool a d Newcastle who were in action last night.

Hard to call Gab Jes has been back to his form cosnider it was only from one game. He's yet proven it in the different competitions. he has to work even harder than before to ensure he can still stay at Arsenal. I've heard his club wanna puts him for sale.

It will be really disappointed him to leave when he was no at his good form. He must try to regain Arteta's trust to regularly putting him as a striker instead of Havertz. Let's see how good Gab Jes's performance on PL.
You're right. I doubt the Brazilian forward has recorded a premier league goal for the club this season, what with him not always starting and when he comes in as a sub, he bottles the chances he has but with this performance in the EFL, maybe he can surprise the fans with a goal or more.
Arsenal need to get back on track if they aim to remain in the title race because the other teams won't sit back and hand the slot to them so they need to put in the work and for Gabriel who is regarded as the club's striker, he can't afford to be careless with goal opportunities since without stating the obvious, the club and his teammates are also banking on him to do better.

Anyways, the end justify the means so let's see if they can perform any magic as they did against Manchester City in their premier league game last week.
Tottenham is doing well this season, but they are also not consistent because they can score goals and they are not too strong defensively which is why it is easy to level up against them or to get a comeback.

Manchester United can give us the same vibe they gave us against Manchester City with great come back because  they have already scored two goals in seven minutes; indeed Amad Diallo is a good player that have huge impact in the team because he scored the winning goal against Manchester City and he has now given Manchester United another lifeline to make it to the semifinal against Tottenham if they can be able to put more effort.
Tottenham Hotspur is controlling the tempo in this game, whereas Manchester united is struggling to withstand the pressure from Tottenhams frontline players. Son Heuong has scored another stunning goal in the 88 minutes of the game completing the scoreline to be a total of 4:2 in favour of Spurs. I doubt if there's gonna be a comeback by Man Utd side at this minutes of the game just as we saw them do in their encounter with city over the past weekend game.
The game is over and United lost the match because they conceded three goals before they could break the deadlock. The game ended 4-3 and United couldn't equalize the goal after several attempts. I couldn't believe that there will be much goals in this match especially in the second half. Tottenham performance was great today but they were lucky.
I can agree that they're lucky because Manchester United could've equalized, on the other hand you can agree with me that the match should've been very much a big defeat if not for the mistakes of Foster. I would say he's lucky they won the match, else his carelessness and lack of focus would've meant going into extra time or thereabouts. The best goal in today's encounter is that of Son from the corner kick. It was nothing short of excellent.

Meanwhile, the match between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United will take place soon. The Red Devils do not have a good enough record when facing Spurs, and moreover this is an away match, so it might be quite difficult for MU to win this match. However, this is a very important match, especially for MU's new coach, to prove that he is indeed a coach who is able to restore MU's glory days.
The game ended few minutes ago with the home side Tottenham Hotspur narrowly winning the game. Tottenham controlled most parts of the game and had the game bottled when Son Heung-Min scored their fourth goal but Manchester United tried to come back into the game in the last 10 minutes as well as in the additional 6 minutes but were only able to get a goal. Tottenham Hotspur have now progressed to the next round while Manchester United have been eliminated from the competition

Manchester United did score another one but the game has ended with Tottenham 4 Manchester united 3. To be honest both goalie were performed poorly especially Tottenham goalie, the entire three goals conceded by them Forster has a major blame to hold there. He should be lucky they were still able to get a win because the post match would not have been something criticism from the coach, teammates and fans would have been much.

Tottenham will be hoping on defeating their next opponent and thereby getting to the final where they may finally lift a trophy after so many years but their game against either Liverpool  or Arsenal will be difficult especially from the fact that Vicario will likely be still out in that game. Forster shouldn't be their option against big teams like Liverpool or Arsenal, although if they have no other choice I hope he do better then.

The match already ended with 4:3 victory. This was never the expected outcome, Tottenham who were already leading with 3 goals was unable to maintain such flow. Truly i can't fully attest that Tottenham deserves this victory only for the close comeback from United it shows that both teams are weak, how shameful could it have been if the match ended 3 to Nil against Manchester United.

Tottenham do not look ready to face their next  opponent, conceding 3 goals later on while up with three goals aswell and just having the best of luck that helped them qualify for the further round totally makes them out of the pick for next fixture. The dream of breaking the yoke of being trophyless for a long time now might actually be shattered if they don't work on how to ease the number of goals they are scored in intense games like this.

I doubt if there's gonna be a comeback by Man Utd side at this minutes of the game just as we saw them do in their encounter with city over the past weekend game.
Son Huming finished the game for Tottenham, and despite the effort United put buy a goal from Evans through Amad Diallo assist, it was too late to complete the the comeback because Tottenham made some substitutions to make the team more stronger and United is now eliminated because the game ended 4-3.

Amorim and the team did their best, but the three goals lead was much and hard to recover even though they tried to level up; however, I think Tottenham is doing well this season, and Ange Postecogli might end their deadlock of not winning trophies.

What a match honestly!! Tottenham went up 3-0 then a goalkeepers mistake got Man Utd hopes and on 3-2 i was thinking that Man Utd might turn this around,but Son just destroyed their hopes in the end and later just wasnt enough time. Was expecting a good match from Tottenham but didnt expect this much goals. Tottenham again showing power in attack.
