WE HAVE PLEASURE IN PRESENTING THE FA CUP ACTION FROM YESTERDAY (16/03/2024), WITH THE FANTASTIC MATCHES BETWEEN MANCHESTER CITY VS NEWCASTLE UNITED, AND WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS VS COVENTRY CITY…..
THE MATCH BETWEEN MANCHESTER CITY VS NEWCASTLE UNITED WAS AN EYE-OPENER WITH NEWCASTLE DEFENDING VERY WELL AND IT TOOK MANCHESTER CITY A LITTLE WHILE TO BREAK THEM DOWN. GREAT ATTEMPTS ON BOTH SIDES ENSUED, WITH THE SKILLS OF BOTH GOALKEEPERS BECOME INCREASINGLY APPARENT.

AND CHECK THIS MATCH OUT FROM YESTERDAY (16/03/2024), WHERE COVENTRY CITY CAUSED A HUGE UPSET BY BEATING WOLVES 3 – 2, WITH TWO STOPPAGE-TIME GOALS, ENSURING THEIR PLACE AT THE FA CUP SEMI-FINALS. COVENTRY CITY’S ELLIS SIMMS SCORED A BRACE AT 53 MINS., AND 90 +7 MINS., AND THEN ANOTHER LATE FINISHER FROM HAJI WRIGHT AT 90 +10 MINS., MEANT THAT COVENTRY HAD THREE! BUT EARLIER, WOLVES PLAYER’S RAYAN AIT-NOURI HAD SCORED AT 83 MINS., AND WITH HUGO BUENO SCORING AT 88 MINS., IT MEANT THAT WOLVES HAD BEEN 2 – 1 UP UNTIL THE ‘STOPPAGE TIME EXTRAVAGANZA’ FROM COVENTRY. THE MATCH CONCLUDED IN A 3 – 2 TRIUMPH TO COVENTRY, WITH THE COVENTRY FANS GOING HOME WITH VERY BIG SMILES ON THEIR FACES!
