Salford City avoided an FA Cup upset as they narrowly beat side Dagenham and Redbridge Salford took a third-minute lead when Jordan Turnbull powerfully headed in from a left-wing corner. The scoreline remained at 1-0 and the League Two side are now just one game away from a potential match against the likes of Manchester United. Who will Gary Neville support if the team he co-owns faces the team he spent his entire career at?
