The clue was in both c/h's taking one before him but March has had an outstanding season for Brighton so it's a shame that ultimately it comes down to him missing from the spot. The sort of thing that can define a career.

It was a stinker of a pen though!
Exactly. He was obviously not confident at all, which makes it all the more bizarre that he then attempted the same penalty as he did against us. I feel really sorry for him as he seems like a nice lad.
well what a shite way to end the FA Cup. the two franchise of Manchester against each other.
You'll probably find that a lot of neutrals won't agree. A Manchester derby final will definitely capture the attention more than City v Brighton would have.
This season's FA Cup final on 3 June will revert to a 15:00 BST kick-off for the first time in 12 years.
The match between Manchester United and Manchester City at Wembley was expected to begin between 16:45 and 17:30.
But London's Metropolitan Police has categorised the derby match as high risk and objected to the later kick-off times on security grounds.
It is set to be the first time the game has started at 15:00 since City beat Stoke in 2011.
The premier Classic horse race, the Derby at Epsom, has also been moved to the earlier start time of 13:30 BST instead of 16:30 to avoid clashing with the Wembley final.
