WEMBLEY, England — Tim Howard stopped two penalty kicks to give Everton a 4-2 shootout victory over Manchester United and its first FA Cup final appearance in 14 years.
The teams had drawn 0-0 through extra time at Wembley on Sunday before the American goalkeeper blocked shots from Dimitar Berbatov and Rio Ferdinand to help put Everton into next month’s final against Chelsea.
Defender Phil Jagielka then scored the winning kick, with only Tim Cahill missing for Everton.
A United team mostly composed of reserves had been marginally the better side through regular time, but needed goalkeeper Ben Foster to stop an extra time shot to the far post by Cahill.
