Zweimal abgefälscht, zweimal Tor: Bernardo Silva schießt City ins Halbfinale

4:59Newcastle-Keeper Martin Dubravka konnte einem Leid tun: Bei beiden Toren war er absolut chancenlos, da seine Teamkollegen den Ball unhaltbar abgefälscht hatten. City nahm es dankend an und sicherte sich das Halbfinal-Ticket.

Bernardo Silvas kurioser Doppelpack bringt Manchester City ins Halbfinale

Auf dem Weg ins FA-Cup-Halbfinale hat Manchester City die Hürde Newcastle United genommen. Matchwinner ist Bernardo Silva, der doppelt traf – unter der Mithilfe der Gäste.

Bernardo Silva hatte zweimal Glück: Bei seinem Doppelpack wurden beide Schüsse abgefälscht.

Vor dem bereits vierten Aufeinandertreffen mit Newcastle United in der laufenden Saison war Manchester City gewarnt. Zwar hatte der im neuen Jahr noch ungeschlagene Triple-Sieger die Magpies in der Liga zweimal geschlagen, im League Cup allerdings unterlag man im November bei den Nordengländer mit 0:1 und musste den Titel bereits in der dritten Runde abschenken.

Und die Gäste, im Gegensatz zu City in der Liga nur Mittelmaß, verfolgten auch im Viertelfinale des zweiten und prestigeträchtigeren Pokalwettbewerbs in England den Plan, die Skyblues zu stürzen. Mit einer tiefstehenden Fünferkette und drei direkt davor postierten Mittelfeldspielern machte man dem Favoriten das Leben schwer und sorgte bei Entlastungsangriffen und anschließend hohem Pressing für Nadelstiche.

FA Cup, Viertelfinale

City, nach dem 1:1 im Liga-Spitzenspiel gegen Liverpool auf vier Positionen verändert (Ortega Moreno, Ruben Dias, Gvardiol und Kovacic für die verletzten Ederson und De Bruyne sowie Stones und Aké), tat sich daher schwer die nötigen Lücken zu finden und Ertrag aus der Überlegenheit zu schlagen.

Erst Burn, dann Botman: Newcastle-Verteidiger helfen mit

Es benötigte deshalb die Mithilfe der Gäste, um deren Bollwerk zu knacken – und das gelang gleich doppelt. Erst war es Linksverteidiger Burn, der Bernardo Silvas Schuss aus der zweiten Reihe entscheidend abfälschte (13.), dann dessen Abwehrkollege Botman, der dem portugiesischen Offensivmann zum Doppelpack verhalf (31.).

Davon abgesehen zeigten sich Torhüter Dubravka und seine Vordermänner stets auf der Höhe, verhinderten weitere Tore durch Doku (8.), Foden (41.) oder Haaland (45. +1) und hatten Pech, dass Ortega Moreno stark gegen Isak parierte (36.).

Sechste Halbfinal-Teilnahme in Serie für City

An diesem Bild sollte sich auch im zweiten Durchgang nichts ändern: Newcastle stand tief, ManCity suchte die Lücken – und scheiterte immer wieder am stark aufgelegten Dubravka oder dessen stets in der Schussbahn stehenden Verteidiger-Kollegen. Weil gewinnbringende Entlastungsangriffe ausblieben, konnten die Skyblues den Sieg souverän über die Zeit bringen und den sechsten Halbfinal-Einzug in Serie bejubeln.

Bernardo sparkles as City breeze into semi-finals of FA Cup

Manchester City became the first side in history to reach six successive FA Cup semi-finals as a Bernardo Silva double saw them stay on course for historic back-to-back trebles with a polished 2-0 home win over Newcastle United.

Sitting a point behind Arsenal and Liverpool in the Premier League title chase and into the UEFA Champions League last eight to face Real Madrid, Pep Guardiola’s side showed they are in no mood to relinquish the FA Cup with deflected goals putting them in charge of this quarter-final before the break.

Silva’s shot on 13 minutes came off Dan Burn and looped over visiting goalkeeper Martin Dubravka for the first on 13 minutes before another Silva effort on 31 minutes flew beyond Dubravka via the head of the unfortunate Sven Botman.

Eddie Howe’s side’s best chance of the match came when City keeper Stefan Ortega was forced to pull off a brilliant diving stop to repel Alexander Isak’s volley on 37 minutes, but they lacked the finishing power to mount a comeback.

Newcastle last won at the Etihad Stadium in the League Cup a decade ago, and never really threatened to alter such a horrendous run of results that has seen them lose 16 of their past 17 trips to City’s ground.

They last reached an FA Cup semi-final in the 2004/05 season.

Talking Point: Slick City will take some stopping

It is difficult to see which team will stop Manchester City when they are in this mood. The prospect of back-to-back trebles is certainly looking within touching distance such is the strength and quality of their squad.

Even without the injured Kevin De Bruyne and goalkeeper Ederson, they still finished miles ahead of a Newcastle side, who produced a game but limited display in trying to upset Pep Guardiola’s European champion.

A return of only two shots at the home goal was Newcastle’s worst in any competition since 2015 with City knowing how to see out the match such is their class in keeping the ball for long periods of time.

They are like a well-oiled machine with every part of their squad knowing what to do when they are called upon. And they also look hungry for more trophies in the business end of this campaign.

Player of the Match: Phil Foden (Manchester City)

Some superb performances from the City players – including exceptional displays by Rodri, Jeremy Doku and Bernardo Silva – but Phil Foden gets the nod with his creativity a joy to behold for Pep Guardiola’s treble-chasing side.

Match Highlights

13′ GOAL! (BERNARDO SILVA) CITY 1-0 NEWCASTLE Well, it was coming and it duly arrives as Rodri feeds Bernardo Silva, whose shot spins off Dan Burn inside the box and loops over Martin Dúbravka and into the net. City with the vital first goal in this quarter-final.

31′ GOAL! (BERNARDO SILVA) CITY 2-0 NEWCASTLE Well, there we go. It is two for Silva and a 2-0 lead for the home side. This time his shot flies into the net off Botman. No chance for the keeper with the deflection. Poor defending really. And has the goal has been awarded to the unfortunate Botman?

37′ ALMOST ONE BACK FOR NEWCASTLE Brilliant move by the visitors. Murphy picks out Burn with a fine cross. His header down is met by Isak, but the volley at goal is stopped by Ortega diving how to his left. Brilliant stop, but Isak will feel he should have scored.

45+1′ NEWCASTLE HANGING ON FOR DEAR LIFE Doku sees an effort deflect wide by Martin Dúbravka before Rúben Dias sees a header well held by Dúbravka. Newcastle will take 2-0 at the break you suspect.

52′ ALMOST A BRILLIANT THIRD FOR HOME SIDE City looked in a spot of bother at the back, but they just play their way delightfully through the visitors before Haaland races up the pitch to fire an effort inches wide. Super piece of play.
