The home side had more to celebrate soon after. Southampton force a corner and the ball bounces out to Caleta-Car. Some transfer news coming out of Southampton ahead of tonight's game and a big boost for the club. They're snapping at the heels of the City defenders and they're slightly rattled as Walker misplaces a pass and it goes straight out of play. The defender plays another brilliant ball in to Mara who runs off Walker and he fires in a delightful first-time finish past Ortega - what a brilliant goal. City just haven't been at it at all so far and look laboured and devoid of ideas - what a half for the hosts. Another City break and De Bruyne puts in a brilliant ball behind the Southampton defence. Walker-Peters is another hero from tonight from the hosts and he wins a free-kick in the corner. Perhaps not after all on this evidence. Some great play from City and Foden whips in a delightful ball across the six-yard-box. But City came no closer to scoring with their Norwegian goal machine on the pitch and Southampton held on to clinch a result they and Jones will not forget for some time. It was a tactical masterclass, in the circumstances and given the opposition, against a man who has made a career out of them.

Southampton produced an incredible display to beat Manchester City 2-0 and seal a place in the Carabao Cup semi-finals.

Haaland gets in ahead of everyone and attempts to flick the ball on into the right-hand side of the net from six yards. Then a pause and a chance for Saints to catch their breath as Perraud accidentally catches Alvarez in the face. 71 min: A City goal will change everything, and with this in mind, De Bruyne works his way down the right. 87 min: De Bruyne embarks on what looks like a dangerous run down the right, but then cuts a ball back to nobody in particular. And no wonder: a corner for Saints down the right. The ball comes in from the right. 88 min: Rodri floats a diagonal ball into the Saints box from the left. Walker-Peters then dribbles down the right and draws a foul from Alvarez. Sometimes you have to take a little of the proverbial, and I’ve had to do that, but I’m clear, I’m strong. but first we need a performance, because if you don’t get that, you don’t get the result. Saints were magnificent, and deserved their reward of a place in the last four. It was a bit like the old Southampton tonight, bold and aggressive and on the front foot.
