A Coventry City star has aimed a dig at Manchester United after drawing them in the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

Coventry's remarkable FA Cup run continued on Saturday as they booked their place in the last four of the competition.

After trailing at 90 minutes, the Championship side scored two injury time goals to beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-2 at Molineux.

Their reward is a Wembley date with Man United, who beat Liverpool 4-3 in an extraordinary quarter-final clash at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Coventry have not reached this stage of the FA Cup since winning the competition in 1987, when they beat Tottenham Hotspur 3-2 after extra-time.

A potential final date against Chelsea or holders Manchester City awaits if the Sky Blues beat United.

A few years ago that would have been a tall order, but Coventry players and fans will be quietly confident they can beat Erik ten Hag's inconsistent side.

Some - including Milan van Ewijk - are even openly confident about their chances.

The Dutch right-back has aimed a dig at United ahead of meeting them next month, admitting that the draw has been relatively kind to them.

"The draw is alright," the 23-year-old said, via ZiggoSport.

"Against Man City you pretty much have no chance. With all due respect, Man United is a top club but they have games where it doesn't go well."

Coventry beat Oxford United, Sheffield Wednesday, Maidstone United before seeing off Wolves.

United saw off Wigan Athletic, Newport County and Nottingham Forest before they knocked out Liverpool.
