Harry Maguire 7, Odion Ighalo 6, Teemu Pukki 3: Norwich City v Manchester United player ratings

Manchester United booked their place in the FA Cup semi-finals after beating Norwich City 2-1 in extra time on Saturday.

Odion Ighalo scored the opener for a dominant United side, before Todd Cantwell levelled.

Norwich were reduced to 10 men in the final few minutes after Timm Klose was given his marching orders. From that moment, United created attack after attack, and finally got the decisive breakthrough in the 118th minute to avoid the lottery of penalties.

Changing visa rules

For decades the UAE has granted two and three year visas to foreign workers, tied to their current employer. Now that's changing.

Last year, the UAE cabinet also approved providing 10-year visas to foreigners with investments in the UAE of at least Dh10 million, if non-real estate assets account for at least 60 per cent of the total. Investors can bring their spouses and children into the country.

It also approved five-year residency to owners of UAE real estate worth at least 5 million dirhams.

The government also said that leading academics, medical doctors, scientists, engineers and star students would be eligible for similar long-term visas, without the need for financial investments in the country.

The first batch - 20 finalists for the Mohammed bin Rashid Medal for Scientific Distinction.- were awarded in January and more are expected to follow.
