Wigan Athletic Manager Aims to Upset Manchester United in FA Cup Clash
Manchester United is set to face Wigan Athletic in the third round of the FA Cup, and Wigan manager Shaun Maloney is determined to cause an upset. Wigan, who famously defeated Manchester City to win the FA Cup in 2013, currently sits 17th in League One. On the other hand, Manchester United has struggled this season and currently sits eighth in the Premier League table.
Maloney acknowledges that every team has its vulnerabilities, regardless of their division. He believes that there are areas where Wigan can exploit Manchester United’s defense and plans to find those weaknesses. However, he also understands the talent that Manchester United possesses and knows that Wigan will have to defend differently than they do in League One.
Despite the challenge, Maloney wants to instill belief in his players and create a match that is extremely difficult for Manchester United. He emphasizes that Wigan will not change their style of play just because they are facing a team from a higher division.
The FA Cup clash between Wigan Athletic and Manchester United promises to be an exciting match as both teams aim to progress in the competition.
