Jesse Lingard fired Manchester United to FA Cup glory with an extra-time winner against Crystal Palace on Saturday. Juan Mata had cancelled out Jason Puncheons opener and, despite United having Chris Smalling sent off for a second bookable offence, Lingard produced a fine volley to clinch the silverware.Here, we round up the talking points from the FA Cup final… Van Gaal delivers silverwareThe manager of Manchester United and the fans of Manchester United can be proud, Louis van Gaal said in his post-match press conference. The Dutchman was quick to point out this is now the fourth major domestic cup hes won across Europe - he has also lifted the equivalent trophies in Germany, Spain and the Netherlands - and Saturdays success was a timely boost after United missed out on Champions League qualification in the Premier League. Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal lifts the FA Cup News Jose Mourinhos agent Jorge Mendes will be flying to Manchester early next week to negotiate a deal for the Portuguese manager to take over as United boss broke just as Van Gaal entered his press conference but he was in no mood to discuss his future, instead eager to celebrate his trophy success.This is Uniteds first FA Cup in 12 years and the first major silverware won since Sir Alex Fergusons departure. After a frustrating campaign which saw the club fall short in the Premier League, Champions League, Europa League and Capital One Cup it is also an important moment for under-fire Van Gaal. It may not be enough to save his job but it does provide him with reward for his efforts. Jose Mourinho is set to replace Louis van Gaal at Manchester United, according to Sky sources Lingard the heroStep off the bench and score a stunning volley in extra time to win the FA Cup at Wembley - Manchester United academy graduate Jesse Lingard lived out his boyhood dream on Saturday. And what a volley it was.The ball fell kindly for the 23-year-old but he met it crisply with his right foot and rifled it into the top corner with just 10 minutes of extra time remaining. Lingard volleyed home for Manchester United in extra time It was a very even game with nothing to choose between the sides. But United got a fantastic goal from Lingard - a goal worthy of any cup final, Tony Cascarino told Sky Sports News HQ.It was Lingards first goal in 18 games for Manchester United. He may have been overlooked by Roy Hodgson for Englands Euro 2016 plans, but expect the Warrington winger to produce more headline-grabbing moments in 2016/17.Rashford injury Marcus Rashford injured his knee in the FA Cup final Less than three months after his Manchester United debut, Marcus Rashford was looking at home on the FA Cup final stage, stretching the Crystal Palace defence with his runs in behind and providing a focal point for the United attack. However, 68 minutes in, Rashford was floored by a challenge from Wilfried Zaha, caught on the knee by Yohan Cabaye and forced out of the game.The full extent of Rashfords injury remains to be seen - he was able to celebrate with his team-mates after the final whistle - but it would be a blow to both the player and England manager Roy Hodgson should the 18-year-old be sidelined.Rashford had been called into Englands pre-Euro 2016 squad and would have had the chance to try to force his way into Hodgsons tournament plans. Hopefully hes OK, said Cascarino. He did very well before he got injured, made some great flicks and produced some great play from someone so young.De Gea shows his importance David de Gea dives at the feet of Wilfried Zaha Lingard may take the headlines but David de Gea once again underlined his importance to Manchester United with an impressive cup final display. The Spaniard was forced into five saves, denying Mile Jedinak and Yannick Bolasie by tipping the ball around the woodwork and diving at the feet of Wilfried Zaha deep into extra-time.De Gea had little chance with Puncheons powerfully hit goal from close range and Cascarino says he was one of the keys to Uniteds victory. If you are going to win things you need a top goalkeeper - and hes certainly that, said the former striker. He made two or three vital saves.Crowned Manchester Uniteds Player of the Year for a record third successive season this month, De Gea was on the brink of joining Real Madrid last summer before signing a new four-year deal. Sky Sports Spanish football expert Guillem Balague expects the La Liga giants to make another move for the shot-stopper this summer. United, though, would rue losing such a major asset to their team. Decisions against Palace Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew speaks with FA Cup final referee Mark Clattenburg For Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew it was a third FA Cup final defeat. The former Eagles midfielder was on the losing side of the 1990 showpiece to United as a player and, after seeing his West Ham team beaten on penalties by a Steven Gerrard-inspired Liverpool in 2006, this reverse to Louis van Gaals side completes an unwanted treble.However, Saturdays match may have panned out differently for Palace had a couple of key refereeing decisions gone their way - as Pardew highlighted after the game.Referee Mark Clattenburg awarded Connor Wickham a free-kick when Chris Smalling brought him down in the first-half - but the Palace striker, who was first to his feet and fired into the net, would have benefited from advantage being played. The ref then waved away appeals for a penalty when Zaha went down in the box in extra-time. Chris Smalling brings down Palaces Connor Wickham I was really disappointed with the Connor decision because you could see he was going to get up first and the advantage was really with us, Pardew said.He actually had a free pass to Zaha for a tap-in but he scored anyway. So to be pulled back was really harsh. I also think Wayne Rooneys tackle on Wilf was a penalty.Clattenburg did award Smalling a yellow card for his challenge on Wickham and the United defender picked up a second for dragging Bolasie to the ground in extra time. However, Palace were unable to make their numerical advantage count in the final 15 minutes.
