Man Utd star Alexis opens up on FA Cup equaliser

Manchester United star Alexis Sanchez has revealed how he wrong-footed Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Michael Vorm during Saturday's 2-1 FA Cup semi-final win.

The Chilean headed past Vorm to level the scores at Wembley. And speaking after the game, Alexis also took time out to praise Paul Pogba for his delivery that lead to the equaliser.

"It was a wonderful ball by Pogba," Sanchez said.

"When the ball was in the air I was going to kick it to the front post but then the keeper moved and I changed the direction of the ball to surprise him."
