Zhuo Yang was absent due to injury and Manchester City lost to Arsenal.

After detailed examination, it was found that Zhuoyang had a mild thigh muscle strain, which is the most common type of injury and is expected to take 7 to 10 days to recover. Zhuoyang and Guardiola both breathed a sigh of relief. This is at least the least bad outcome among the bad news. The first leg of the Champions League semi-finals with Juventus will start in 14 days, so it’s good not to delay this.

The most regrettable thing is that they cannot participate in the next FA Cup semi-final against Arsenal. Manchester City attaches great importance to this game.

The league is hopeless, and the future of the Champions League is full of dangers. The FA Cup only needs two more wins to win the championship. If we hold on, even if we fail in the Champions League, we will have an answer for this season. Manchester City spent 200 million last summer. This season you must have some respectable underwear.

Whether Zhuoyang can play or not, Manchester City will try their best to win this game. However, the result is very disappointing.

For Professor Arsene Wenger, the FA Cup is even known as the ‘Extension Cup’, and Arsenal will certainly not give up. The game, played at a neutral venue at Wembley, was as intense as any strong match.

Manchester City actually played well, but they were not very lucky. Not only did they hit the door frame twice in the first half, but they also injured David Silva in the 23rd minute. Guardiola was so worried that he almost scratched his bald head and bled.

In the 40th minute, Sterling, who replaced Silva, scored a supplementary goal, but the referee believed that Sane's previous pass went out of the baseline first and the goal was invalid. However, through slow-motion analysis, it is not possible to determine whether it is present or not. It is very ambiguous.

In the second half, the team took the lead. Debich made a long pass from the backcourt, Aguero broke through quickly after being offside, and faced Cech in the penalty area and scored with a shot. This is Akun's fifth goal in this year's FA Cup, ranking first among scorers. The scorer list of the FA Cup only counts the number of goals scored during the main match.

It is useless to advance too much, not as important as to enter too much. In the 72nd minute, Chamberlain made a pass from the wing. Spanish full-back Monreal grabbed the goal line and used his body to knock the football into Manchester City's goal, 1:1.

This is the first goal Monreal has scored in all competitions this season, which is worth a thousand dollars. After ninety minutes of fighting, the two sides were tied.

In the FA Cup competition format, after entering the semi-finals, if there is a tie, there will no longer be a replay, but regular overtime until the penalty shootout.

In overtime, Ding Ding's long shot hit the goal post again. Manchester City was quite unlucky. In the 100th minute, Arsenal's Sanchez stepped forward.

Arsenal got a free kick near the corner flag. After Ramsey took it, there was chaos in Manchester City's penalty area. Welbeck's shot was well-deserved and almost helped Manchester City escape.

Sanchez's follow-up shot from the crowd first penetrated Kompany's crotch, and then broke through Bravo's door. Before the game, Guardiola made it clear that Bravo will be the main goalkeeper for the remainder of the season. Perhaps he was moved, but Bravo has made significant progress. Arsenal shot on target three times in this game and only scored two goals.

Arsenal 2:1, this was also the final score, and Manchester City stopped in the FA Cup semi-finals.

However, it cannot be said that Manchester City gained nothing from this game. At least it set a football record, and the person who set this record was the "Prince of Manchester City" Iheanacho.

As we all know, each team has three substitutions in every football match. But in fact, the 'three-substitution system' actually ends at 1, and it is not a pure substitution of three at the beginning, but 2+1. That '1' can only be used to replace the goalkeeper.

The "three-replacement system" has been implemented for almost 30 years. With the new leadership and new atmosphere of UEFA, we need to make some changes for football, so we thought of advancing to the "four-replacement system". But you can’t do anything recklessly. You have to have a trial first. The FA likes to be the first to lead the fashion.

After discussion, starting from 2017, the FA Cup will pilot the '3+1' substitution plan, and the '1' must be in overtime.

There was no overtime before the semifinals.

This one has it. In the first overtime, Iheanacho replaced Sterling, who was running and had diarrhea. This was Manchester City's fourth substitution of the game.

As a result, the 21-year-old Kelechi Iheanacho became the first "3+1" substitute to appear in an official game, thus being recorded in history.

Has strange and useless knowledge been added?

Manchester City waved goodbye to the FA Cup and lost a very useful fig leaf. All hopes can only be pinned on the Champions League. Arsenal once again stubbornly advanced to the FA Cup final. This was the Arsenal's 20th time and ranked first in England.

At first, everyone thought that the shocking 2003-04 season was the starting point of the Arsenal dynasty, but the fact is that it was the glorious end of Arsenal. After that, Arsenal never scored a major championship, and they bravely embarked on the road of no return as the "fourth master" of the Premier League.

Afterwards, the FA Cup in the 2013-14 and 2014-15 seasons was their only consolation in the dark times. Wenger also used it to tie the record held by Villa coach George Ramsey.

Therefore, many people say that the FA Cup, which always keeps Wenger alive, is an out-and-out 'thermos cup'. It can be seen that Guardiola is a warm-hearted person, this is his "scientific insulation".

However, if he wants to keep warm again, the professor has to pass the last hurdle - Chelsea.

The day after Manchester City and Arsenal were separated, at the same Wembley, Conte's Chelsea defeated Po's Tottenham 4:2. Kong Erluzi came here with his sights set on winning the double crown in England, with ambitions high in his heart.

Manchester City has left the FA Cup, but they still have to fill the hole for the FA Cup. At 18, because I couldn't defeat Hazhen in one round, I had to add a rematch. Chain reaction, post 2.

Four days after being eliminated by Arsenal, does Manchester City have enough time to finish second in the make-up? Nothing. For this game, the 34th round that was supposed to be at this time was postponed again, which was very chaotic.

Gundogan and Zhuoyang were injured, and Silva's tendon and Stones' psoas muscle were temporarily added. The good news is that Jesus passed the team doctor's permission to participate and sat on the bench.

He suffered a bone fracture in early February and returned from injury at the end of April. The young man recovers quickly and has enviable firepower.

Manchester United is even worse, with six generals including Pogba, Ibrahimovic, Rojo, Smalling, Mata, and Jones, and six major injuries. This is Mourinho. If it were Guardiola, he might find himself a jersey and put it on.

The make-up game at the City Stadium is Manchester City's battle to secure the top four, and it is also a battle for Manchester United, which is temporarily ranked sixth, to advance into the top four. No one can afford to lose, or even tie.

So at the end of ninety minutes, Lao Gua and Mu Niao looked at each other speechless, each suppressing their irritability and dislike of the other. The big screen in the stadium showed 0:0.

A make-up game only made up for the loneliness of the Manchester City duo.
