Winner of Newcastle (2-0), Manchester City validated their ticket for the last four of the FA Cup. Pep Guardiola’s men are on a ten-game winning streak in this competition.
This Saturday evening, Manchester City hosted Newcastle on their lawn at the Etihad Stadium, for the quarter-finals of the FA Cup. Shortly before the quarter mark, the Citizens opened the scoring. Bernardo Silva beat Dubravka with a shot deflected by Willock’s leg (1-0, 13th).
The Portuguese international doubled the lead just after the half-hour mark. Very successful, the former Monegasque once again saw his left shot deflected, this time by Sven Botman. Helpless, the Magic goalkeeper found himself caught on the wrong foot (2-0, 31st).
Sixth consecutive Cup semi-final for the Citizens!
The two teams started the second half with the same 22 players as at the start of the match. A half-time relatively poor in scoring opportunities. Thanks to this victory, Manchester City joins Coventry in the last of the FA Cup.
On Sunday, the identity of the last two clubs qualified for this competition will be known, following the Chelsea – Leicester and Manchester United – Liverpool matches.
