Manchester United legend, Rio Ferdinand has reacted to his team’s FA Cup third-round penalty win over Arsenal on Sunday.

The match concluded 1-1 after 90 minutes and extra time, with United winning the FA Cup third round on penalties.

Due to the lack of VAR, there were a few issues, the most notable of which occurred in the 69th minute, when Harry Maguire was deemed to have tackled Kai Havertz in the box.

Referee Andy Madley pointed to the spot in favour of the home team.

After the game, Rio Ferdinand shared his reaction on X (formerly Twitter).

“Another battling performance… desire, willingness to fight as a team! ManUtd. Bet the ref’s gutted,” Ferdinand wrote.

He added in another tweet, “Have that!”.
