"Manchester United" finished their battle for the FA Cup on Sunday, when they lost to London's "Chelsea" team in the semifinals. The coach of the "Red Devils" Ole Gunnar Solskjaer chose a somewhat unusual lineup for these matches and admitted after the game that the changes he made were not effective. "We chose a lineup that would give us the best chance to reach the final, but at the same time we would be properly prepared for the upcoming Premier League matches. It didn't work out today. During halftime, we had to change our tactical plans due to Eric Bailly's injury. However, we will be properly prepared for Wednesday's match now. I chose a lineup today that could lead us to the final," said O. G. Solskjaer after the game. The FA Cup semifinals also did not shine for David de Gea, who has been receiving a lot of criticism lately. The Norwegian coach also had some remarks for his goalkeeper. "All players must demonstrate good play and everyone has a chance to prove themselves. De Gea understands that he had to save the team from the second goal, but that's in the past. For a goalkeeper, unlike outfield players, it is very difficult to compensate for their mistakes. He made some great saves later on. However, he understands that he had to play better in that moment," added O. G. Solskjaer.
