Cup: Manchester City wins Newcastle and will play against Arsenal in the halves – Foot – ANG – Cup

Faced with completely dumb Magpies (pies), the Citizens should already have had a much more comfortable lead at break, knowing that they have possession of the ball at more than 80% – which corresponds to the timeless will of their coach, Pep Guardiola – and on numerous occasions, by Mahrez (12th), Gabriel Jesus (17th), Sterling (24th, 25th, 34th) and Laporte (45th + 2). But they were content with a goal, a penalty obtained by Gabriel Jesus (for a double push from Fabian Schär), transformed with composure by Kevin De Bruyne. The brilliant Belgian international community (74 caps, 19 goals) thus celebrated its 29th anniversary with dignity, now totaling 12 goals (10 in the Premier League, 1 in C1, 1 in Cup) and 19 assists this season.

In the second half, after a distant attempt by Mahrez above (54th), and a huge equalization opportunity missed by Gayle, close to the right (66th, served by Saint-Maximin), Raheem Sterling managed the break of a superb shot wound from the inside of the right (67th), after an action beautifully launched by a laser recovery from Aymeric Laporte, who managed a good performance in central defense. City then had other opportunities to worsen the score, but will therefore settle for the 2-0.
