🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - 2025/2026 soon

[WatChe]

The owner of Nottingham Forest will be proud of the entire team if they come out second place in the English Premier League, win the FA cup and qualify for the Champions league. This season the players and manager have been very magnificent. I dont miss any part of their game so i am waiting to see them at least get one trophy after a wonderful season.

Nottingham Forest final position in EPL will decide whether they will qualify for the champions league or not. The forest team must be well aware of the fact that they are very close in making it to the champions league and will be giving their best in remaining games of EPL. It will be clear tonight that who is playing against Nottingham Forest in the semi final. No doubt Nottingham forest is one of favourite team to lift FA Cup and it will be interesting to see whether they can lift this year FA Cup after all the hard work.

Two teams have gone to Wembley. Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest. Crystal Palace went to Wembley after beating Fulham 3-0 in normal time at Craven Cottage, London, Fulham's home base.
Nottingham Forest stepped into Wembley in a slightly tiring way because until AET there were no goals that forced a penalty shootout.

Manchester City and Aston Villa who were made favorites to win the match later, can it be true or just make a list of many failed bets.

Nottingham Forest had a narrow escape from Brighton they got favoured by the penalties, Brighton were very tough and played well but luck wasn't on their side, as for Crystal Palace they deserve the victory they played more better and scored beautiful goals to kick Fulham out of the FA Cup, Fulham tried to fight back but they didn't stand a chance, they'll have to try again next season.

 It would be very suprising if Manchester City or Aston Villa lose their matches, wel Manchester City are playing away against Bournemouth so their's could be a bit tougher but Aston Villa should easily beat Preston, they're not even a top 6 team in the Championship League, the first half is almost over and either team are yet to score, Aston Villa are leading in possession but they'll have to do better.

Even on the third position he will be very proud because that wasn't what he saw last time, so he will feel pleased and come to a discussion with the coach to no what they should do because if third was there results this time, they would want to appreciate, Brighton almost outperformed them yesterday but the aggregate hit back Brighton and Nottingham Forest won through that. Today is who will be on the Semi final between Aston Villa and Preston North end but is now first half no goal but Aston Villa with Marcus Rashford whom has now become a source of good attacking for Aston Villa will be more positive after this break.

According to statistical analysis Manchester City will not lose their place at Wembley. The FA Cup trophy will be the most realistic target for them to achieve this season even though Bournemouth will play their best game when facing Manchester City.
Likewise with Aston Villa who are facing a Championship team. It would be surprising if Aston Villa failed to win in 90 minutes.
This match is still 0-0 and it's half time.

This match is still 0-0 and it's half time.

Fortunately Aston Villa successfully score a goal, Rashford previously shot on target and then he shot again which resulting in goal. We see how big the difference between Aston Villa and Preston North End, Preston North End have no chance here.

Rashford is shining in this match.

Edit: Rashford score again in penalty, maybe he might get hattrick in this match.

Rashford this time acted as the player who scored the goal and brought Aston Villa to victory. Usually Asensio plays the role of goal scorer.
The second half Aston Villa showed that their class is different. If in the first half Villa only released 5 shots, in the 2nd Aston Villa released 11 shots and 6 of them were on target.
It seems that the atmosphere in the Aston Villa dressing room made Unai Emery want his team to end the match with a victory.

Now only Manchester City is one team left.

Amazing day for Nottingham Forrest, and fantastic season 2024/25.
They just kicked out Brighton after penalty shootout and they are going in FA Cup semifinal.
Crystal Palace was better than Fulham in first match and now we are waiting two more teams from tomorrow matches.

The owner of Nottingham Forest will be proud of the entire team if they come out second place in the English Premier League, win the FA cup and qualify for the Champions league. This season the players and manager have been very magnificent. I dont miss any part of their game so i am waiting to see them at least get one trophy after a wonderful season.

This Nottingham Forest team has been magnificent this season in all competitions they have made sure to stay on track without a dulling moment  with their performance. In the EPL they rock and have been consistent maintaining their third place they occupy within the top four ranking on the table and it's already getting clearer that they will make it to the European league competition next season. I think if they get pass the semifinals stage to the finals they can recreate what Newcastle did against Liverpool in the Caraboa Cup final by beating any team they would be meeting in that finals because I see they have the quality and discipline to make it happen.

[Helena Yu]

Now only Manchester City is one team left.

Manchester City have a good start, they create many chances and they even rewarded a penalty. But, this is Kepa, a good keeper in penalty stage, he saved the penalty. Now, it's Bournemouth who score a goal, a quick revenge done by them.

Actually I still think Manchester City will win this match, they're not bad.

It's not rare to see Manchester City not score first.

[Bd officer]

Today the quarter final match of FA Cup was between Aston Villa vs Preston, where Aston Villa won 3-0. The first half of this match was a 0-0 tie, but Aston Villa scored 3 goals in the second half. In the end Aston Villa won 3-0. Aston Villa won and qualified for the semi-finals. 3 teams have confirmed semi-finals, now one team is left. Now the match between Bournemouth vs Man City has started, the team who wins this match will qualify to play in the semi-finals. Now Bournemouth lead by 1 goal in 21 minutes. Now let's see which team wins in the end.

Manchester city has been dominating possessions and proceeding so far but has had little to show for it. Bournemouth on the other hand has been able to get an early goal and seem to be in control of the tie at the moment.

Can Bournemouth hold on to their lead and score more ?

Manchester city are very slow and dull in that Match. I watched the entire first half and what I saw was not encouraging. Bournemouth are looking more sharp than city and they are dominating the midfield area, and troubling city defense. Apart from the penalty that Erling Haaland missed and the other one on one that went over the bar, city haven't had any serious attempt that would trouble the Bournemouth defence, or their goal keeper. City players are mostly trying to play from the back, but it's not working for them. Bournemouth players are looking more physical and aggressive more than city. They have made Ederson to work more than expected. With the way the first half ended, if it continues like that in the second half, there's no way city are going to win. They look very tired and exhausted, Haaland she be substituted and let Omar replace him.

At the end of first half which was completely dominated by Citizens Bournemouth have lead while Haaland missed penalty which is going to be big setback for them because this quarterfinal is important for them after having exit from Champions League and worst performance in Premier League where chances are almost ended for their win or having second spot.

Brazilian star Evanilson score goal which is giving edge to Bournemouth which is also trying to bring themselves on good level after having last few poor results Pepe Guardiola will be change his strategy for second half as things are not favourable in first half at Vitality Stadium Bournemouth as situation going to look like Bournemouth could be give tough challenge for keeping their lead.

Manchester City has not taken any time to score the equalizing goal. The substitution made by the Manchester City coach, taking out Khusanov and bringing in O'Reilly has served its exact purpose. The early goal gives a boost to Manchester City who will be positive now that they can win this while Bournemouth are under an early pressure. There is still enough time in the game for any of the teams to win it, but so far in this second half, it is looking like it will be Manchester City who win it at the end.

Substitutes many at times often makes the main difference in a game. It’s something Ancelotti prides in and even with a difficult Manchester City, Pep often comes up with this once a while for a strategy. After E. Haaland’s missed penalty, Kluivert was out to punish them by getting a goal in less than 10minutes after but, they only could hold that through the first half. Early in the second half, Haaland redeems himself from the O’Reilly assist and another one for Marmoush to put Manchester City in front. They would just as well have won this one.

And yes they won, Manchester City came from behind to complete the comeback against Bournemouth in the Quarter finals of the Emirates FA cup. Because of Manchester City bad run of form, I know so many pointers gave Bournemouth a win or win or draw option on their stake. I personally avoided the game because games like this usually don't go the way we planned. Somehow I felt City might shock it's opponent and the other feeling was like, Bournemouth are in form and they might win. In my confusion, I just left the game like that without adding it to my coupon.

[emrecemsan]

For once I was really worried about Manchester City. But they made the comeback anyway.    The FA Cup is literally the only thing they have now. They can't afford being eliminated early here. But I must admit Bournemouth was a quite tough opponent.

Now as all the semi finalists are decided, the updated draw:

- Crystal Palace v Aston Villa
- Forest v Manchester City

Now if we don't see a surprise I'm expecting for an Aston Villa v Manchester City finale. Emery vs Guardiola... It'd be so much fun to watch in the finale.

Pep was right to have taken Khusanov out, the young defender was really shaking and his position was continuously being exploited by the Bournemouth players. I will say Khusanov is still adapting to the physicality of the  english football. Things are done differently from where he's coming from. His substitution really gave city more authority in the game. Now they have advanced to the semi final where they are going to face Nottingham forest. It would have been very disastrous for Manchester city had they not come up with the win tonight, their season would have ended without a trophy. When they face Nottingham forest, it is going to be a difficult challenge for them, because we all know what Nottingham are made of. A dangerous team that's looking for every opportunity to win their first title in many years.

Nottingham forest and Newcastle has been good and equally deserve to make it to the finals. after seeing the way Newcastle celebrated their trophy, getting a second trophy will be something that will bring so much joy to the team. Manchester city where lucky to have made it this far,  in todays game, erling haland missed a penalty while Bournemouth where first to find the back to the net. he later redeemed himself by scoring an equalizer and mamoush scored a winner that gave them a place in the semi finals. forest a very good team defensively and will be hoping on getting a draw that will lead to a penalty shootout in the fixture. if Manchester city can't take enough chances to break the Nottingham forest defense, this last opportunity of getting a trophy might just slip through Manchester city's hand

Pep Guardiola's team should have scored a quick goal to create an advantage, but it was very unfortunate when Man City got a penalty right in the 14th minute, where E. Haaland as the executor failed to execute it properly and Man City failed to create an advantage. And just 7 minutes after the incident, Man City had to concede a goal against Bournemouth, which made Man City's condition even more depressed. However, fortunately in the second half, Man City managed to overcome the pressure and started trying to control the course of the match, and sure enough in that half they managed to score 3 goals that took them to the semifinals.

And for the next match, Man City must again face a fairly tough opponent, where Man City will face Nottingham Forest in the semifinals later.

- Forest v Manchester City

Gone are the days where we see Manchester City fixtures and then think that they are going to win the games without facing any problems. For this game against Nottingham Forest I do not think that they would have an easy game because Nottingham Forest this season have shown to be a balanced team and it has reflected on the position they occupy on the Premier League table. It is going to be  a tough fixture for both teams and maybe Nottingham's Forest first choice of a striker (Chris wood) will be back.
