Breaking News: FA Cup semi-final dates Revealed officially amid Manchester United's clash with Coventry City date also confirmedManchester United’s FA Cup semi-final match against Coventry City has been moved up by the FA because the Metropolitan Police asked them to.

Next month, the semi-finals of the FA Cup will be held at Wembley. Because of worries from the Metropolitan Police, Manchester United’s game against Coventry City has been moved up.

United will play Coventry at 3:30 p.m. the next day, April 21, and Manchester City will play Chelsea at 5:15 p.m. on the same day. The Football Association (FA) reportedly asked for a 4 p.m. start time, but after talking with police, they have now decided to move the game.

The Daily Mail says that the police saw the match as “high-risk.” The FA and stations were said to be upset about the change because later kick-offs usually mean more people watching on TV.

The last time City won the title, they beat United 2-1 in the final to complete a historic triple. Pep Guardiola’s team will be the favorites to beat Chelsea in the semi-finals.

On the other hand, United is the favorite to win the other semi-final after beating Liverpool 4-3 in extra time in the quarter-finals. Championship team Coventry, on the other hand, could pull off an upset after beating Wolves 3-2 to get to Wembley.

And Coventry’s manager, Mark Robins, won the FA Cup with United as a player in 1990 and is very excited to play his old team. “I honestly think that the teams that are left are just top, top sides, but my preference was United,” he said to Coventry Live.

“At one point, it looked like Liverpool would make it, but then everything changed.” I really wanted United to win, and it was great that we were drawn out first and they came after us.

“But the game would be great no matter which team you pick.” They have some great players, but we’re looking forward to the game. The trip to Wembley is great for everyone—the fans, the players, the staff, and everyone else. We can play a top team with a top boss at Wembley.

“Everyone will expect them to win, and we want to go out and do our best again, and have fun.” In the end, just getting to this point is a huge accomplishment, but you don’t want to go ahead and make up the numbers.”
