Bournemouth v Man City LIVE – team news, updates and reaction from FA Cup quarter-final

That’s it from us after Man City turned things around to beat Bournemouth 2-1 and reach another FA Cup semi-final!

Watch Pep Guardiola’s press conference after Man City reached their seventh straight FA Cup semi-final.

The City boss spoke brilliantly on Nico O’Reilly and hailed his players as LEGENDARY.

A lovely moment for Nico O’Reilly at the end of the game as Guardiola pushes the youngster towards the away supporters, who were loudly chanting his name, to go and celebrate with them. He was pivotal in the turnaround, setting up both goals.

City turn it around to reach their seventh straight FA Cup semi-final!

Evanilson had given Bournemouth the lead at the break following a hat-trick of missed chances in the first-half from Erling Haaland, including a penalty.

But Nico O’Reilly’s introduction at half-time proved to be an inspired substitution from Guardiola, setting up Haaland and then substitute Marmoush to send City to Wembley.

McAtee takes one for the team by committing an intentional foul to stop a Bournemouth attack.

A good chance for City to kill the game off but Kepa saves. De Bruyne’s shot is blocked and falls for McAtee but the goalkeeper does well to palm the ball away from his strike.

Guardiola sarcastically applauds the fourth official. Safe to say he’s not too happy with that.

Nunes takes too long with a throw-in and is shown a yellow card.

Last throw of the dice by Iraola, bringing off a defender in Senesi for a striker in Jebbison.

That was Gundogan’s last action as he’s replaced by McAtee. Gonzalez also comes on in place of Kovacic.

Gundogan almost books City’s place at Wembley, clipping the outside of the post with his first-time strike after Grealish had laid the ball off to him.

Here’s how substitute Omar Marmoush put City ahead in the tie. Will it be enough to send them to Wembley?

AND IT'S THAT MAN MARMOUSH THAT PUTS CITY IN FRONT! ⚽️

Kluivert becomes the latest Bournemouth player to be shown a yellow after tripping Nunes.

Another double change for Bournemouth as they search for an equaliser. Evanilson and Christie go off for Scott and Smith.

Cook is shown a yellow card for a foul on Grealish.

Guardiola brings on Grealish, who replaces Foden.

City almost have a third!

Marmoush leaps high to head the ball down from Nunes’ cross but Senesi is there to clear it off the line with Kepa beaten.

Man City take the lead!

Marmoush, on as a sub just a few minutes ago, slides the ball low past Kepa and into the corner. O’Reilly gets the assist again with a deft pass into the striker.

The Bournemouth keeper should really have done better with that.

Christie goes into the book for pulling back Kovacic.

Confirmation of the sub with Haaland having to go off injured and Marmoush replacing him.

Haaland has gone down again just moments after coming back on and will have to be replaced. Marmoush is being readied.

A worry for City with Haaland down receiving treatment after clashing with the advertising boards.

He’s gone off at the side of the pitch but it looks like he’ll try to continue.

Andoni Iraola has responded to City drawing level by making a double sub. Outtara and Hill are on for Brooks and Soler.

The decision to bring on O’Reilly made an instant impact for Guardiola. The youngster has gone on at left-back with Gvardiol moving across into central defence with Khusanov taken off.

Haaland pulls Man City level right at the start of the second half!

He missed a hat-trick of chances in the first half but makes no mistake this time, tapping in from close range after a lovely ball across goal from substitute Nico O’Reilly.

What an impact from the youngster who came on for Khusanov at the break.
