Roy Keane has urged Manchester fans to not “be deceived” after his dramatic victory of the FA Cup on Leicester.
The Red Devils reserved their place in the fifth round of the competition thanks to the late head of Harry Maguire on Friday. Although the repetitions showed that the defender was well out of play, Var was not in use and the objective remained.
The result got a little on the cracks of a poor united at night, with the side of Ruben Amorim without having a white shot until the 68th minute when Joshua Zirkzee did it 1-1.
Bobby de Cordova-Reid had given visitors a well-deserved advantage in the return of Rudd Van Nistelrooy to Old Trafford, but replaces Zirkzee and Alejandro Garnacho helped inspire a return.
United fans celebrated in the stands while recovering from a disappointing defeat of Crystal Palace the last time, but there are still 13 in the Premier League and fight under Amiram.
Keane, speaking in the coverage of the ITV game, criticized by his side when he broke his struggles and minimized the result.

Keane questioned the apparent lack of energy in the team in the middle of a poor first half that shows
Despite winning 2-1, United did not have a shot in the target until the 68th minute when they scored their first goal
“It's a bit of everything,” he began. 'The manager is obviously frustrated.
'I don't understand. There is no energy: we continue on tactics, you have to play with energy, it is the starting point and enthusiasm. No matter what system you are playing, you don't approach anyone.
You have to close people. We saw two bad teams out there.
He added: 'Don't be fooled. You have to praise them, in the next round, but the performance itself was not good enough. ''
Sir Alex Ferguson was seen in the stands with people like Sam Allardyce and Ryan Giggs, at a time strucking while watching a boring first half since his former team.
But he was all smiles and cheers after Maguare went, a decision that Keane described 'shocking', seen in his feet applauding and laughing.
After the game, Amorim was given that United won the game in the famous 'Fergie Time', but a disappointed coach from United did not see the fun side of things when talking to ITV.
“We have to believe until the end, but this game has nothing to do with Fergie's time,” he said directly. 'We have to do it much better with and without the ball.
Harry Maguire went to United in the 93rd minute, but the repetitions showed that he was well offside
The head of United, Ruben Amorim, said that 'was not a good day' despite the fact that his team progressed to the fifth round of the cup
'We did not have energy in the first half, in the second it was better and we played with speed and we managed to change the teams.
'I cannot concentrate on saving the season with impulse from a cup, it is not the way I see football or the united man. I am not thinking about the end of the season, I don't care that, I care about the moment and at this time it is not good enough. Today was not a good day.
The attitude of the Portuguese was a complete contrast to that of his predecessor, Erik Ten Hag, who often used the victory of the United FA Cup last season as a defense when asked about the bad general form on his side.
It was the first half that did it for United, with the hosts just giving a finger to their opponents, which are still in the relegation zone of the Premier League.
Rasmus Hojlund was once again anonymous, while Kobbie Mainoo had problems in the advanced role in which Amorim now seems his favor.
It was halfway when Keane got the greatest of his blows.
“It has been shocking, really very poor,” Keane began in the interval. 'They are boring now.
'They should remind players in the locker room what the game is about. There is an objective that ends. There is no energy, there is no energy in the stadium, they are waiting for something to happen.
'Lack of trust, urgency, giving it to low price. I only look at him from a united point of view and I am thinking: 'My God, is this what is coming?' Nowhere nearby good enough.
