LONDON (AP) — Manchester United beat Brighton 7-6 on penalty kicks at Wembley to set up a first-ever FA Cup final against Manchester City. Victor Lindelof struck the winning spot kick after the semifinal match ended 0-0 through extra time. Solly March had fired over after both United and Brighton had converted their previous six penalties. United will now meet City in the June 3 final. Victory saw United immediately bounce back after being dumped out of the Europa League by Sevilla on Thursday. It also gives Erik ten Hag the chance to win his second trophy this season after already lifting the League Cup. Also Sunday Newcastle routed Tottenham 6-1 in the Premier League and West Ham beat relegation-fighting Bournemouth 4-0.
