Louis van Gaal has admitted that winning the FA Cup remains Manchester United's key target this season, having seen his side held to a goalless draw by Cambridge United.

The Red Devils struggled to break down their League Two opponents at Abbey Stadium last night, ensuring that a replay will be needed to separate the pair.

United have failed to lift the famous cup since back in 2004, and with no European football to contend with this season, along with the Premier League title seemingly being out of reach, Van Gaal is focused solely on progressing to the next round.

"The FA Cup is very important - it is the most important title for us," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport. "To win the Premier League is much more difficult now, so the FA Cup is our objective also."

Both sides will enter the sixth-round draw, which is scheduled to take place on Monday evening.
