Federico Macheda backs Manchester United for FA Cup win with answer fans will love

It's a decade since Federico Macheda last pulled on a Manchester United shirt, but returning to Old Trafford will always be special for the Italian.

His debut is still remembered to this day and will be for many years to come. On his first senior appearance, a young Macheda tucked home a delightful stoppage time winner at home to Aston Villa - with United coming from two-one down to win 3-2. Sir Alex Ferguson's men went on to lift the Premier League title that season.

But the forward - who now plays for Turkish side Ankaragücü - remains a popular figure among the fan base and his love for the club will always be there.

Macheda's young son has watched his father's famous goal against Villa many times online. And with regards to the team Macheda Jr supports, it has to be United in the eyes of his dad.
