It was a sweet spot for Silva, but not enough for him to catch the ball properly and kick it into the goalpost. Instead, the ball merely touched the tip of his shoe, bounced, and skewed right outside of the goalpost, passing Gabriel Jesus, who was helpless as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fast forward to the 30th minute, Kevin De Bruyne, whom the commenter called the iconic midfield player of Manchester City, faced Karl Darlow, goalkeeper of Newcastle at the penalty kick. And being his iconic self, De Bruyne effortlessly kicked the ball, and it flew right into the corner of goalpost. He knew where exactly he wanted the goal to head to, having Darlow go the other way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A bad pass from Otamendi has given way to Newcastle forward player, Allan Saint-Maximin, a chance to get hold of the ball and pass it to Dwight Gayle. The pass from Maximin was so spot on, that is was easy-peasy for Gayle to fetch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With nobody impeding, Gayle was supposed to be able to make the perfect goal, seeing how the goal was open. But he made an error, and the ball skewed right past the goalpost. Disappointed, Gayle and Steve Bruce, the Magpies\u2019 manager, did a facepalm. On the other hand, Saint-Maximin scratched his head, completely let down by the incident.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other than Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling also became the star of the match that propelled Manchester City to the semi-finals. Darlow was close to blocking, but the ball came in hot, and as luck would have it, victory sided Sterling.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lee Mason\u2019s whistle closed the curtain for the FA Cup quarter-final, and the suspension followed up.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The semi-finals will see Arsenal going against Manchester City on July 19 at Wembley Stadium, and Manchester United will take on Chelsea on July 20 at Wembley Stadium too. These matches will take place at 2:45 AM (MYT) and 1:00 AM (MYT), respectively. Be sure to watch them on iTV because we will be streaming it live.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The FA Cup final will come about at Wembley on either August 1 or 2 (MYT), just a week after the Premier League season comes to an end.
