Amad Diallo received a second yellow for his wild celebration after producing Manchester United’s unlikely winner with his 121st-minute goal in the FA Cup quarter-finals.

The 21-year-old Ivorian replaced Raphael Varane in the 85th minute and scored the winner after Garnacho broke free after winning a misplaced pass from Harvey Elliott.

The United player admitted he forgot his first yellow was booked six minutes earlier for tripping Virgil Van Dijk.

Despite seeing red for taking off his shirt in celebration, Diallo will not miss the FA Cup semi-final between United and Coventry City, thanks to recent rules introduced to the English game, although Diallo will have to serve a one-match suspension.

Recent rules introduced into the English game state that certain suspensions must be served in the competition in which they were accrued. However, this rule does not apply to red cards.

Under recent rules, receiving multiple yellow cards in the FA Cup results in a competitive ban, while a red card is still just a regular match ban.

For example, Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez had to sit out his side’s quarter-final win over Leicester on Sunday after picking up two yellow cards in the competition previously.

As this rule does not apply to red cards, Amad will serve his one-match suspension in United’s next domestic match, regardless of the competition in which the match takes place.

This means the 21-year-old will miss United’s next match against Brentford on March 31.

This means he will be available for selection straight after for United’s Premier League matches between Chelsea, Liverpool and Bournemouth before their trip to Wembley for a place in the 2024 FA Cup final.

Despite his red color, Diallo will not miss United's semi-final against Coventry City. He will instead serve his one-match ban against Brentford in the Premier League.

Speaking on ITV after the match, Diallo said: “I forgot the first yellow. I’m very disappointed for that, a red card, but the most important thing for me is to win and against a big team like Liverpool is a big, big moment for me.

“Everyone came up to me and congratulated me. I want to thank everyone, the fans were superb the whole match.

United will face Championship side Coventry City in the FA Cup semi-final on April 20 at Wembley.
