Ten Hag took a dig at Roy KeaneGuided United to FA Cup winDutch coach's future remains uncertainWHAT HAPPENED?
The Red Devils rode on Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbiee Mainoo's first-half strikes to edge out rivals Manchester City 2-1 in the FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday. After bagging the Carabao Cup in his maiden season at Old Trafford, under-fire Ten Hag has now added a second trophy to his collection.
Right after winning the title, Ten Hag spoke to United legend and ITV pundit Roy Keane and took a dig at the former club captain during a hilarious conversation.

As Ten Hag joined the ITV crew, Keane told the head coach: "You must be proud of them, we've always questioned players about their quality at Man United, but character and leadership. They showed character today – which I had questioned, and a lot of people have…you shouldn't listen to them pundits anyway! Take no notice of the pundits.
The Dutchman then responded by saying: "But you told me!" before Keane pointed at fellow pundits Ian Wright and Joleon Lescott and said: "No, them two!"
The United boss then took a dig at Keane's managerial career as he said: "You had trouble to manage a team!"
This led to Keane saying: "Ah, I won a Championship with Sunderland…give me some praise, ah come on! You're too harsh on me!"
The manager then tried to explain his statement by saying: "What I said to you," before the pundit interrupted by saying: "I agree."
GOAL/GettyTHE BIGGER PICTURE
Despite the win over City, the 54-year-old's future at Old Trafford remains unclear as the club have reportedly identified Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna as his successor. INEOS chief and United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe was asked but the coach's future after the game, however, he remained tight-lipped on the topic.
