Manchester City defeat Newcastle United 2-0 at the Etihad in the quarter finals of the FA Cup to solidify their spot in the top four.
The defending champions welcomed Newcastle to the Etihad to try and continue their home record of not losing in over a year and that is what they did. They comfortably beat the Toon army 2-0 not allowing Newcastle any clear chances to score.
After being knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Newcastle earlier this year, City have not lost a game to them in any of the following fixtures including the game where De Bruyne lit up Newcastle and now Bernardo Silva scoring a brace to put them to bed.
Bernardo Silva scored 2 heavily deflected goals in the first half that was good enough to end Newcastles chances of getting back into the game with Erling Haaland having another quiet game, Silva stepped up and provided the goals for the Citizens.
The draw for the FA Cup semi-finals will come after the games that will take place tomorrow between Manchester United vs Liverpool and Chelsea FC vs Leicester City to find who will join Manchester City and Coventry Town in the semi finals with City fans hoping for Coventry to be drawn.
Manchester City’s next game is against Arsenal in the Premier league in another crucial game for the title race where both teams are in dire need of a win from this contest of two teams that have been neck and neck for two seasons now.
