Manchester City v Burnley: FA Cup quarter-final – live (The Guardian)

Minute-by-minute report: Can Vincent Kompany sink his old club's FA Cup hopes as Burnley travel to Manchester City? Find out with Scott Murray.

The ball was begging to be bundled over the line. The Lineker Affair wasn’t the first time a prime-time light entertainment star wandered off piste in search of a greater truth. And no wonder: pretty sure they’d have settled at the start of the season for winning the Championship in style. Cork is extremely fortunate not to go into the referee’s notebook. Then suddenly Rodri sends a diagonal ball towards Walker on the right-hand edge of the box. The ball pings off the top of Beyer’s head and out for a corner. He enters the box, drops a shoulder to see off Maatsen, then rolls across to tee up Alvarez for a simple tap-in. City soon come again, Phillips striding into the box down the same flank and sending a screamer over the bar from a tight angle. Alvarez drops a shoulder to see off Al Dakhil, jinks inside, and absolutely roofs his shot into the net. 83 min: Cullen sweeps a cross in from the left. 87 min: De Bruyne dribbles down the inside left channel and draws a clumsy foul from Cullen. According to Gary Lineker on the BBC, Erling Haaland has spent the last two matches scoring goals at the rate of one every 15 minutes and 45 seconds.

“Or do you want to go into that game on the back of their tough games and results? David James added: “I think breaks can be good. “I think it’s great for the team because it can get very intense, but now they can go away with their country and get a little break and then it’s ‘great, I’m going back to my club – I’ll go away for the international break but we’re in great form and I’m looking forward to playing more good football.’” “I think Pep said we need to be at 100% every game a few months ago and that’s not to just compete with Arsenal, that’s for the FA Cup and the Champions League,” he said. “His second goal was ridiculous - not only did he create space for Kevin to play the ball – and what a pass that was – and the defender did ever so well to get back, but then he chopped inside and had the composure to finish. “He premeditates where the ball is going to go and then it's just about getting his body in the right position of how he wants to finish - but with the

Erling Haaland has scored 10 goals in the same way to embarrass ... (Manchester Evening News)

Manchester City thrashed Burnley 6-0 at the Etihad to reach the FA Cup semi-finals and it was another incredible day for Erling Haaland.

There was a standing ovation, a blast of 'here's to you Vincent Kompany' and then a warm embrace between the City manager and his former captain. This wasn't the result that Burnley wanted, but they played an enterprising part in a game that was competitive for longer than it might look. That aggression led to a couple of errors from City in their half and some promising openings for the Championship leaders. Ever since the draw for this quarter-final was made, Guardiola has been telling anyone who would listen that Kompany is capable of replacing him. Vincent Kompany is so wedded to some of Guardiola's principles that he told his players to calm down and keep possession when they couldn't find killer passes on the edge of the opposition area. They are also now in the FA Cup semi-finals and you would only consider Manchester United as potential rivals for that trophy. Most City seasons reach March with talk of a treble or quadruple still going strong and this one is no exception. If City keep this up then it's hard to see them dropping many more points between now and the end of May. It's not so long ago that City's inconsistency was being cited as the reason they wouldn't win the league this season. This is truly obscene stuff and after a relatively barren run of two goals in eight games he is now electric. He could be the man to make the difference over the next two-and-a-half months. The statistics are not only plentiful, but they are also mind-boggling.
