00:02Manchester City are back at Wembley today as a place in the FA Cup final is
00:08at stake against Southampton. The Saints stand in City's way as they look to book
00:13their spots in the final for the fourth consecutive year. For Southampton it
00:18would be a first final in 23 years.
00:28Jerky on the ball, Malmusha's in the penalty area, cuts a lonesome figure for
00:34the time being. City back out.
00:41To the area by Kovacic, Kovacic will come it alone and nearly scored.
00:46Narrow angle for Kovacic, but he fancied it.
00:55Onside, maybe didn't feel he could get it across to Malmusha or just wanted to go
00:59himself.
01:07Kovacic able to turn, he's baited it through to Malmusha, Malmusha will go for the finish,
01:11tried that at the near post after it ran across him. There's the opportunity to hit
01:16that slightly earlier, maybe across to the back post, instead decided to go shoulder
01:22to shoulder with the defender and it was saved by Peretz.
01:31And for Foden.
01:38Into the box, overhead kick attempt from Tiani Reinders, it was spectacular but the contact
01:43was not clean.
01:46He clips his right foot and goes out for a Southampton goal kick.
02:00Doku on the left.
02:03It's going to be Savinu on the right.
02:11Looks like Malmusha and Cherki both in the middle.
02:17Reinders goes for goal, it's just wide from Tiani Reinders.
02:37Savinu, first chance for him to run.
02:39And the defence gets outside his compatriot Wellington who recovers.
02:44When it comes at a price, looks as if he's picked up a hamstring problem.
02:52Not ideal when you're having to square up to Savinu.
02:55There we go.
02:59Doku around the back.
03:01Nori tees it up and is put over by Malmusha.
03:06Pep Mariola with his head in his hands.
03:09Malmusha could have scored a hat-trick in this one.
03:15Just haven't quite happened with his finishing so far.
03:27Cherki turns.
03:29Step-overs from him.
03:32Got players in the centre to try and find.
03:36Receives the ball back from Savinu.
03:37Doesn't go for goal.
03:38At least first time around.
03:40Savinu will go for goal though.
03:41He's parried away by the keeper.
03:43Back out to Jeremy Dock who in City can't carry over the momentum.
04:05Well, not just Nico O'Reilly to be brought on.
04:07Erling Haaland is going to come on as well.
04:15So O'Reilly is on.
04:20Might have been an excellent season for him.
04:27City won the ball back and Haaland could immediately be played through instead.
04:31It's sent across for a right-footed strike by Nico Gonzalez.
04:34Comes back out to him.
04:35Teed up for a strike that's close down.
04:37Follow-up goes wide from Tiani Reinders.
04:40And City appeal for a hand ball off the defender.
04:44The referee is going to check this one.
04:48Nico Gonzalez belts the strike at Pettit.
04:51Plays it back.
04:57It's a thunderous shot.
05:03And the follow-up effort by Reinders that went wide.
05:14Reinders to Shirky.
05:16Shirky is dispossessed by Xander.
05:20Sienza.
05:24Near to the D.
05:25Hit on the turn.
05:26Bending effort Southampton have scored.
05:30And said he have just 12 minutes in which to equalise and force extra time.
05:41Swerving ball on the turn from Azaz.
05:48It's a curl off his right foot.
05:52There was no way Trafford was going to reach that.
05:57Manchester City 0 Southampton 1.
06:04Savinho.
06:11Played through.
06:11This is the chance for City.
06:13Drilled across.
06:14But blocked by the goalkeeper Peretz.
06:18It seems like it's going to be the script for the rest of the game.
06:23City out and out attack.
06:27Southampton trying to hold on.
06:29It's come to Reinders who's shot wide on two or three occasions.
06:34Nico Gonzalez who's had a shot saved by Peretz.
06:37It's over to the back post.
06:38Too high for Haaland.
06:39Too high for Ake as well.
06:41But Reinders has pulled it down.
06:44Doku.
06:46Doku's chance deflected and finds its way in.
06:49An immediate response from Manchester City.
06:51Jeremy Doku makes it one apiece.
07:00And it hits Charles who was the hero against Arsenal in the last round.
07:11This ball comes back to Karl Lahren.
07:14Lahren tries to tee it up.
07:16And Trafford tips one over from Asuki.
07:21Looks if the Southampton players were getting in one another's way there.
07:26Trafford with the fingertip save.
07:28And one that was required from him as well.
07:35Doku.
07:37Doku gets into the box.
07:39Tries to cut this back.
07:40It comes to Stone.
07:41Stone's teased it up.
07:42That's that low shot that's blocked from the edge of the six-yard box.
07:52Doku.
07:53If City score now there'll be almost no time to respond for Southampton.
07:57It is in.
07:58A rocket from Nico Gonzalez.
08:03From distance.
08:05The Spaniard scores.
08:08Nico Gonzalez was having a look.
08:10The defense had backed off.
08:11One touch to set it up.
08:12The second.
08:14To smash it into the net.
08:18Manchester City two.
08:20Southampton one.
08:22Nico Gonzalez with the goal.
08:26Well they had taken the scalps of two Premier League sides.
08:30But Manchester City just proved to be too good for them.
08:33Southampton.
08:41Southampton go home disappointed.
08:44Pep Guardiola impressed with what he's seen from the Saints.
08:47But his side have the superior firepower.
08:50Final score here at Wembley in the semi.
08:54Manchester City two.
08:57Southampton one.
08:57Southampton two.
09:07Out.
