Default Re: [2015/2016] Man United Fixture and Result

Manchester United's FA Cup replay at West Ham to be played on April 13... despite UEFA saying domestic football should not be played on Champions League nights

* Manchester United drew 1-1 with West Ham in the FA Cup on March 13
* The Football Association can expect a fine from UEFA because they have decided to play the replay on a Champions League night
* Benfica host Bayern Munich while Atletico Madrid face Barcelona that night


The FA are on a collision course with UEFA once more after West Ham's FA Cup quarter-final replay against Manchester United was pencilled in for the same day as the Champions League last eight.

The Premier League rivals are set to face each other on April 13 following their 1-1 draw at Old Trafford on March 13.

However, the new date clashes with two Champions League ties as Benfica host Bayern Munich while Atletico Madrid face Barcelona in their second legs.

The FA Cup tie at Upton Park will kick-off earlier than usual at 7pm, in an attempt to minimise the crossover but it still breaks UEFA's rule that domestic games must end 30 minutes before the European matches kick-off.

Another date isn't feasible for West Ham or United due to their busy domestic schedules - with the winners set to face Everton in a Wembley semi-final on April 23.

Prior to then, West Ham face Crystal Palace (April 2), Arsenal (April 9), Leicester (April 17) and Watford (April 20).

Meanwhile, the Red Devils take on Everton (April 3), Tottenham (April 10), Aston Villa (April 16) and Palace (April 20) after the international break.

It'll be the second time this season that an FA Cup game will take place on a Champions League night following Arsenal's 4-0 fifth-round replay win at Hull on March 8.

That tie started at 7pm but overlapped with Real Madrid's last-16 second leg win over Roma and Wolfsburg's triumph against Gent.

The move means clubs could now lose out on UEFA cash. When the problem has occurred in the past - for Premier League games - £1million was withheld from a solidarity payment of £10m paid to the FA to be split equally among the 20 clubs in the top division for youth development and community projects.

The FA were also fined £42,000.
