The FA Cup fourth-round draw is complete, and talkSPORT has full coverage of the fallout from this weekend’s thrilling matches.
The weekend began with Everton narrowly defeating Peterborough, while Graham Potter suffered his first loss as West Ham manager.
Liverpool, Chelsea, and Manchester City comfortably overcame lower-league opponents, but Brentford faced a shock exit at the hands of Championship side Plymouth.
Meanwhile, National League Tamworth pushed Tottenham to extra time before being eliminated, and Manchester United edged out Arsenal in a penalty shootout after a classic encounter.
Amorim Praises Zirkzee’s Impact
“He’s a great guy who works hard. Life offers these beautiful moments,” Amorim told BBC Sport about Zirkzee.
“Just a few weeks ago, we were struggling, but today he changed the game for us. We advanced thanks to his goal.
“Sometimes, you feel everything will work out in the end. From the start of the second half, I sensed that, and perhaps Arsenal felt it wasn’t their day.
“We deserved to progress because we suffered together and showed great character.”
Reflecting on Zirkzee and Bayindir’s resilience, Amorim added: “It’s crucial for every player. Football is full of cycles and moments, and things can change quickly. After criticism at Tottenham, Altay was our hero today.
“Josh faced backlash from fans recently after being subbed before halftime, but tonight, he scored the decisive penalty. Life works in mysterious ways—your time will come.”
On Rashford’s Future at Man United
When asked about Marcus Rashford’s future, Amorim said: “I don’t know, we’ll see. He’s a Manchester United player, and he loves the club.
“He has to work hard and represent the team, but I have to make tough decisions. Let’s see what happens in the next game.”
