Manchester City survived a scare to beat giant killers Plymouth 3-1 and progress to the FA Cup quarter-finals on Saturday
survived a scare to beat giant killers Plymouth 3-1 and progress to the FA Cup quarter-finals on Saturday, after Crystal Palace striker Jean Philippe-Mateta was hospitalised in the Eagles’ 3-1 win over Millwall.
However, it was one of City’s youngsters who took his chance to shine as Nico O’Reilly turned the tie around. “Big compliments to Plymouth for making our job so difficult. They were incredibly organised, but we played a good game,“ said Guardiola.Palace’s progress into the last eight came at a cost as Mateta was stretchered off the field straight into an ambulance and taken to hospital in the early stages of their south London derby.
Palace manager Oliver Glasner confirmed Mateta had suffered a serious injury to his ear but said the impact could have ended the Frenchman’s career. Palace were made to wait until 82 minutes to ensure progress when Eddie Nketiah’s looping header found the far corner.Bournemouth advanced to the last eight for only the third time in their history with a 5-4 penalty shoot-out win over Wolves after their 1-1 draw at the Vitality Stadium.
