Roy Keane<\/a> was full of praise for Danny Welbeck as the former Manchester United<\/a> star scored to send Brighton<\/a> through to the FA Cup<\/a> quarter-finals.<\/p>\n

Sunday’s FA Cup fifth round clash between Newcastle United<\/a> and Brighton was an eventful affair, with Alexander Isak scoring an early penalty before Yankuba Minteh equalised just before the break.<\/p>\n

Both sides were reduced to 10-men in the dying minutes of the 90 as Anthony Gordon and Tariq Lamptey were shown red, with the former now set to miss the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool.<\/a><\/p>\n

Fabian Schar thought he had won it in injury-time only for his superb volley to be ruled out by the semi-automated offside,<\/a> sending the match to extra-time.<\/p>\n

And with 114 minutes on the clock, substitute Welbeck scored the winner with a classy, dinked finish over Martin Dubravka.<\/p>\n

‘You see Danny there, vastly experienced,’ United legend Keane said of the striker on ITV.<\/p>\n

‘We talk about the magic of football and winning big games. The smile on his face, he’s like a kid.<\/p>\n

‘This is the importance of the squad, your subs have got to come on and have an impact. We saw Danny’s enthusiasm, he’s a player whose won the trophy.<\/p>\n

‘He’s 34 now yet he came on and made a difference. Newcastle’s subs came on and it seemed like it was a chore to them but Danny’s professionalism shone through there.’<\/p>\n

Welbeck came through United’s academy, winning the Premier League in 2013 before joining Arsenal <\/a>where he twice lifted the FA Cup.<\/p>\n

The England International has enjoyed somewhat a career renaissance since moving to Brighton in 2020 and United even tried to re-sign last summer<\/a>, with then-manager Erik ten Hag believing he would be an \u2018excellent addition\u2019.<\/p>\n

Some have tipped Welbeck for an England recall – seven years after his last cap – and that’s something Seagulls boss Fabian Hurzeler thinks could happen, telling ITV: ‘It might be possible, but it is not my decision.<\/p>\n

‘The only thing I can say is I am happy to work with him, he is a great leader, great role model and a great player.’<\/p>\n

‘I think he knows that whenever I’m on the bench I am going to be analysing and making sure I can have an impact,’ Welbeck said of his manager.<\/p>\n

‘I tried to do my best and thankfully I got the winning goal. We have got to push on. There’s a lot more to come from us as a team. It is exciting times and we’re looking forward to finishing strong.’<\/p>\n
