Our record in FA Cup semi-finals

RECORD HOLDERS

United have reached 29 FA Cup semi-finals in our history, winning through to the Cup final 20 times and losing 9 of them. Arsenal share that semi-final record with us (and also have an identical record of won 20, lost 9).

THE FIRST TIME

Our first semi-final appearance came in March 1909, when a Harold Halse goal was enough to defeat Newcastle United in front of over 40,000 fans at Bramall Lane.

HOT STREAKS

Of the 13 FA Cup semi-finals United reached from 1976 through to 2007, the Reds won all 13 of them.
