On a night that threatened to see Hull City's hopes of reaching Wembley flat-line, there is still a pulse to be found in Marco Silva's side. It is faint after second-half goals from Juan Mata and Marouane Fellaini put Manchester United firmly in the driving seat with a 2-0 advantage, but just to be still alive felt like an achievement for a team that has been decimated by injuries. Two midfielders played in defence with a defender in midfield, capturing the very definition of a makeshift side. Fellaini's late goal, though, ensures there is a long, long way back from here.
