MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Headers by Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic earned Manchester United an unconvincing 2-0 victory over Brighton and Hove Albion in a low-key FA Cup quarter-final played in freezing conditions on Saturday. The goal was Lukaku's 12th goal in 11 FA Cup games and the Belgian's 25th of the season in all competitions, including goals in each round of the FA Cup. Brighton, in contrast, grew more confident as the game went on and dominated possession in the second half to keep United goalkeeper Sergio Romero busy. It was important to see a reaction today and we're through to the next round and we're happy," Matic said. United, bidding to win the FA Cup for the 13th time, joined Tottenham Hotspur in the last four.
