FA Cup, Manchester United progress after beating Watford: Records broken

A Scott McTominay goal in the fifth minute was enough as second-string Manchester United got past second-tier Watford in the third round of the FA Cup. McTominay was named captain of this much-changed side by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. United needed a response after being beaten by Manchester City in the Carabao Cup semi-final. Watford grew into the game and made this an exciting contest.

McTominay found the net early on after rising to meet Alex Telles' corner. Eric Bailly missed a free header next from a corner. Juan Mata also failed to find a finish to an excellent three-man move just before half-time. Daniel James and substitute Marcus Rashford had shots saved in the second half. Watford had several chances but failed to find an equalizer.
