1-0 at Old Trafford last night
SOCCER
A Scott McTominay goal was enough to hand Manchester United a 1-0 win over Aston Villa in the FA Cup at Old Trafford last night.
Villa were arguably the better team in the match, with Danny Ings' second half goal ruled out.
United will now play Middlesbrough in the fourth round.
