Yes yes yes. Semi-finals at club grounds was one of the jewels in the crown of English football. Villa Park was an amazing venue for United vs the London clubs. Maine Road and Goodison Park in 1979 and 1985 - incredible. Glad they've started playing some England matches away from Wembley again. Hopefully the cup semi-finals will go back again one day but I doubt they will.

@GTS Yeah right, couple of months from this game there were a Euro 2004 where he played in the Final for his country.... and also, CR7 scored in a cup final 2004. So... he were never shite for United. His prime were def the 07-09, but even the earlier years were never never never shite.

villa Park was Great for cup semis. should bring it back

I was there, what a game. What at atmosphere! This is why FA semi's shouldn't be played at Wembley, its just not the same.

One of the best atmosphere's from Utd fans ever. Remember that day so well. Every Utd fan was up for this and more. When Scholes scored the place went absolutely mental. The Last 10 minutes we carrried the team over the finishing line. Proper passion and singing your heart out for the lads. Only wish the modern day football could be like it that again. Truely great memory i will have forever. Thanks for posting this vid. Keep the Red Flag Flying High, Cos MAN UTD Will Never Die!!!

Arsenal dominated this game but united won. a year later at the final, united dominated the game but Arsenal won the Cup

I DO HAVE TO ACCEPT UNITED HAVE THE BEST AWAY SUPPORT, THOUGH.

This rivalry never gets old when it comes to back in those glory golden days!!

Absolutely incredible day, this. Quite simply, this game epitomised all that is good about MUFC, on and off the pitch. We were given less tickets than Arsenal that day (due to the usual excuse of 'persistent standing'), but the noise from our end was simply incessant from start to finish, especially for that rendition of the 'Red Flag' at 7:02. Breathtaking. No other set of supporters can come close to United's when everyone's up for it as they were here.

i love watching giggs and scholes play in their primes. such amazing players. simple brilliance. Nothing particullarly flashy, just simple elegance.

Neville... Giggs... Scholes - a real Manchester goal. Paul Scholes worth his weight in gold.

I remember these days the united arsenal rivalry was brilliant. Always intense, very rarely ever a draw. Keane vs Veira, fantastic stuff. Shame it's just seen as another game these days.

John Motson when united are singing the red flag: "I thought this was a chelsea song" What an utter clown.

Incredible support that day, United fans sung form the first minute to the last ! The Gooners fans looked in shock ! Left Manny at 7am got in at 2am next morning ...what a trip ! All this Wembley for the semis is bollox, pure greed by the FA.

Im a United fan obv, and I have to say that Arsenal were much better title contenders to us in them days than Chelsea have been to us over recent years! United v Arsenal was fucking class, massive rivalry!! Giggs had it right when it said "United vs Arsenal is like a heavyweight boxing match!" every game at 100mph and pure class goals were still scored by both teams! memorable, Chelsea are very strong but just boring as fuck! I miss them days a bit!

In those days the buildup to a United-Arsenal match would last for WEEKS. Partly Sky hype I guess, but I don't remember any other domestic English fixture/rivalry ever getting that kind of attention before or since.

Brilliant thanks for posting!

I attended all but a few of Man United's games between 1975 and 1990 and the first time I remember hearing the United fans singing the Red Flag song was when losing 0-2 at Maine Road in November 1979. During that time I attended all the home and away games against Chelsea and cannot remember the Chelsea fans singing their version (I could be wrong though as it was a long time ago!).

Great team goal! Scholes' finish was great too! Great match! Miss these days

Terrible nowadays having semi finals and finals at wembley, takes the fun out of the whole thing. My suggestion, use the cardiff stadium semi finals or use the aston villa pitch again.

arsenal is in my heart always.

I remember the hype before this game being that Jeremie Aliaderie was an "able deputy" to Thierry Henry....

Glory Glory Man Utd. 🏆🏆🏆

2 great teams in those days

amazing arsenal team

I'm not talking about which one is better, I'm talking about how it can be seen that Arsenal are 'so-called invincibles'. I'm all for you chaps celebrating your 'invincible' season, it is a fantastic achievement going 49 games unbeaten.

Wonderful goal, created by Neville, Giggs and Scholes.

This is why I never liked John motson he was utter clueless. Saying that he thought solskjaer scored when it was quite clearly scholes who blasted it In. And when he thought it was Chelsea’s song and not uniteds song. He said ludicrous comments like this all his career.

this is a bit of a forgotten classic this match

Looking at the lineup from Man Utd... that was quite a huge gamble for Fergie on that (no RVN, no Forlan, a young Fletcher starting, etc.). What a save by Carroll at 2:27!

I just miss FA Cup Semi's at Villa Park and Old Trafford...much more atmosphereic and meant more to get to Wembley if you won because you might not have been there before

Look at that, Gary Neville plays a through ball to Ryan Giggs who cuts back and lays it off to Paul Scholes who shoots and scores. #LEGENDS

i agree mate!

awsome

Last season where the semi's were held on neutral ground?

If you were there,you know. Fucking incredible United support

It's amazing from 1:54 to 2:30 how does Arsenal not score. I know Carroll made 3 great saves, but how in the world does Arsenal not score there. The defense there was just terrible except on that Wes Brown save, but its amazing that United won without Van Nistelroy who was hurt, Rooney (young), Giggs at striker who barely does it, Ronaldo (young). Also it amazing that Henry didn't play that game who was still a force for Arsenal at that time.

i supose, but with walcott when he plays well, he is amazing and the whole team plays well with him, needs to be more consistent though

The good ol' days....

These highlights don't show much. I was at the game and Arsenal should have been 3-0 up within the first 20 mins, hit the woodwork about 3 times and missed a hatful of chances. United had only that one attack, quite lucky to win it really, but we got our own back by being outplayed at next year's Cup Final yet still winning it.

Back when the FA Cup was actually an exciting tournament.

Neville+Giggs+Scholes=goal,good ol' times.

2:21 - pure genius!

true. I miss the old rivalrys between manu and arsenal they put up a better fight than losserpool and chelsea.

In case you don't realize, we're on a FA Cup video, showing a United team beating a team that was supposed to be invincible. That is why the point was raised that they were so called invincible as they were beaten during that season, which contradicts the meaning of the word 'invincible'. As you rightly said, its actually not rocket science its quite straightforward. Your comment was in fact deleted, someone flagged its repost for spam and hence I didn't see it until I went on 'all comments'

There are a few little bits missing from these "highlights"...Like for instance the fact that in the opening half hour Arsenal hit the woodwork three times and should have scored a hatful. Fair play to United for taking their chance after. MIss those games a lot. There was a bit of aggro outside the United end after the game from what I remember.

Can anyone explain to me why Arsene Wenger tended to drop Henry against ManYoo during that time and then tried to introduce him later on when the game's usually already lost?

szczesny has been one of the stand out keepers this year..sure ramsey hasnt been great this season but gibbs has been good also. wellington silva and cambell you cant judge yet as they have been on loan and are still very young but i think they will both be good. and if i cant include walcott because he is a "sprinter" then noway can you say lennon is top-class....

szczesny, gibbs, walcott, song, wilshere, ramsey, oxlade-chamberlain. And not forgetting the players out on loan such as vela, Miyaichi, wellington Silva and Campbell...

@10superchivas no mate that was the league match at Old Trafford the following November

I always wonder how roy Carroll stayed at United for so long

Why did Arsenal get allocated more tickets?

Foooollll !!!!!

Old days! i miss this period. Money of Chel, Manc ruined everything

Motson convinced Solskjaer touched the ball for the goal when he wasn;t even close to doing so!

who won the match?

i meant FA CUP (its on the name of the video) but thanks for the correction ;)

See this is why I never rated John motson as a commentator absolutely clueless sometimes. He thought solsjaer got the last touch there.

@ReDArMy06 Yeah exactly, it was fucking insane back then!

roy carroll is currently first choice of best greek football club. better that than nothing...

Remember this game well. Amazing atmosphere. We'll never die We'll never die We'll never die We'll never die We'll keep the Red flag flying high Cos Man United will never die!

he means away games thats why he said 'traveling support'

They should bring the FA Cup back to the BBC, with Motson at the commentary. ITV are shit.

Oh u were thinking of the classic between these 2 in 1999 I take it? This one is 2004 u can tell the difference between the 2 sets of players. Ok both teams have a few players that were playing 5years earlier but for example Ronaldo is playing in this game. In the classic, Beckham scored the opening goal of the match and quite obviously Ronaldo was the replacement for Beckham meaning they never played for ManUtd at the same time. 99 classic was the most entertaining game ever, u should watch it.

WOOOAW :D RONALDO'S HAIRS :D

@HensH08 pretty sure we did man

i see imran still looks the same (84 mins)

No it was 0-1 with Scholes scoring the only goal to put ManUtd in the final where we only had to play Millwall so basically Scholes's goal won the FAcup for ManUtd that year. Ironically in the next FAcup final against Arsenal again (where Utd dominated the entire game) Scholes was the only player to miss in the 10man penalty shootout which undeservedly gave the FAcup to Arsenal. But Scholes before that miss and after it has given us so many wins i.e Semi-final Vs Barca 2008 only goal of the tie.

Any ABU who says United have got shit fans needs to watch this. Not keen on the team, but United's away support has always been the best in the country, by a mile, even when they were shite. Nothing but respect for them, from an ardent West Ham fan.

@RazzaBeeDaSilva im a die hard gooner. have to agree. I have tons of respect for your club that is just as much as mine. absoulutely agree with you. the whole viera vs keane shit will always make me laugh. I totally miss this man u and the slightly previous arsenal. imo, the best two teams(:

match starts at 1:43

My arse are United fans the best in England. Complete bollocks. United fans are silent compared to most of the 'average' teams in the PL like west ham, liverpool, newcastle, fulham and everton. Their away fans are memorably louder than United, even when they are losing and United are winning. Its generally people who hardly ever go to games that say things bout other teams fans. As a season ticket holder at Arsenal, I know which away fans are the best and it certainly isnt a Manchester team.

from kent eh?

I wasn't aware the definition of invincible is limited only to league football. Going by what you chaps profess, it can be applied to a team who went unbeaten in a competition. United did it twice in the CL, maybe not as impressive, but we were 'invincible' in that trophy none-the-less, and what's more, some rate the CL higher than the league.

No support in England comes anywhere near Man United. Awesome.......just awesome noise !!!!!

Nah this was definitely 2004..this was the same season arsenal went unbeaten in the league!

where's thierry henry?

@redmustang03 rooney wasn't a man utd player when this game was played. henry didn't start but he came on later, i remember he was on though because he had a confrontation with roy carroll. you thought it was amazing that arsenal didn't score against man utd in this FAcup tie but a year later the2005 final was much more beyond belief. it was all man utd with the possession&chances. arsenal played for pens,only had 1 shot on target in the whole120mins & that was from a dubiously awarded free-kick

Look at that Gunners bench..options. Not like now.
