Manchester City and Coventry City plotted contrasting paths into the FA Cup semifinals on Saturday.
Pep Guardiola’s side brushed aside Newcastle United 2-0 thanks to a pair of deflected Bernardo Silva strikes to reach a record sixth-consecutive semifinal.
By contrast, Championship Coventry were 2-1 down deep into stoppage time at Wolves before Ellis Simms and Haji Wright brought about a comeback for the ages.
On Sunday, March 17, Chelsea host Coventry’s second-tier counterparts Leicester City before Manchester United and Liverpool play out the latest chapter of their historic rivalry at Old Trafford.
There must be a winner on the day in both remaining quarterfinals, at which point the four remaining teams will learn their semifinal fate.
