Manchester United survived a tense FA Cup fourth-round match against Newport County winning 4-2. Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo gave United an early lead but Newport fought back with goals from Will Evans and Bryn Morris. However, United regained control with goals from Antony and Rasmus Hojlund.
The match was crucial for United, who are struggling in the league and European competitions. Despite the win, manager Erik ten Hag admitted to defensive lapses and emphasized the importance of winning the FA Cup for salvaging their season. The victory sets up a fifth-round tie against the winner of Bristol City and Nottingham Forest.
