How Joshua Zirkzee cost Man Utd £225,000 during FA Cup clash against Fulham
Manchester United only have the UEFA Europa League left to win this season after Fulham reigned supreme at Old Trafford on Sunday.
Bernd Leno was the hero for the Cottagers when saving penalties from Victor Lindelof and Joshua Zirkzee in the shootout – after goals from Calvin Bassey and Bruno Fernandes sent the Round of 16 tie to extra time.
It is not just a blow for Manchester United in terms of missing out on a trophy, but also a setback financially in terms of prize money – amid a time where Sir Jim Ratcliffe is making large cutbacks within Old Trafford.
On that note, let’s take a look at how much the Red Devils could have won, had Zirkzee – who Juventus like – not missed his decisive penalty against Fulham.
Manchester United miss out on £225,000 in FA Cup prize money
Those who reached the FA Cup quarter-final have secured themselves £225,000 in prize money.
Unlike the semi-final and the final, where the losers receive £500,000 and £1m respectively in consolation prizes, there is no cash coming the way of Manchester United for losing to Fulham in the Round of 16.
The most recent, and final, cash prize Manchester United have taken from this season’s edition of the FA Cup is the £120,000 they received for beating Leicester City in the fourth round.
You can see how the FA’s prize money fund for the FA Cup is shared out in total below.

How much Manchester United can earn from the UEFA Europa League
While the Red Devils obviously would have liked to defend their FA Cup, success in Europe is far more valuable to INEOS this season and beyond.
- Winner: £11m
- Runner-up: £5.9m
- Semi-finalists: £3.5m
- Quarter-finalists: £2.1m
- Round of 16: £1.5m
- Reaching knockout round play-off: £252,800
- League-phase wins: £379,201
- League-phase draws: £126,400
Manchester United, who want Geovany Quenda, secured themselves £1.5m just for reaching the Round of 16, and will bank a further £2.1m if they can make the quarter-finals, more than the FA award for actually winning the FA Cup.
