Eliminated Real Madrid, Manchester City reached the last four of the Champions League. A day later, their opponents in the Champions League semi-finals were also out.

Barcelona defeated AC Milan 3-1 at home to eliminate AC Milan 3-1 on aggregate to reach the semi-finals.

They will face Manchester City in the semi-finals.

That's really ...... It's not that enemies don't get together.

Manchester City beat Barcelona in last season's Champions League final, and this season the two teams met in the semi-finals.

This is a chance to give Barcelona a chance for revenge......

Barcelona thinks so too.

After they eliminated AC Milan, Pique said in an interview that it would be great to meet Manchester City in the semi-finals.

“…… We've been waiting for this day since last season's final, and we've been looking forward to meeting Manchester City again, and this time we're going to show them what Barcelona are capable of! ”

Goalkeeper Valdés also said: "Man City are strong but we are confident of beating them. No team in this world can go undefeated. ”

Messi also expressed confidence in an interview: "I will give my all in the game. We respect Manchester City and that's why we're giving it our all. ”

In this regard, Manchester City's response was a little flat.

A reporter went to interview Rong Guang and told him that Manchester City's opponent in the semi-finals had come out, and it was Barcelona!

"Oh." Rongguang first sighed, and then found that the reporter was still stunned, and added, "So what?" ”

"Don't you have anything to say?" The reporter said frantically.

"Not yet." Glory shook his head and left.

Even if Barcelona lost to you in the Champions League final last season, you don't have to be so bland, right? Is this a kind of psychological warfare for Glory, or is it what he thinks?

Nobody knows.

Ibrahimovic, on the other hand, refuted the "revenge theory" put forward by the Catalan media: "Why didn't we give us a chance to continue beating them? ”

The reporter who came to ask the question was speechless and did not know how to answer.

Because of the Champions League match with Real Madrid, Manchester City's 32nd round of the league is the last in the entire round of the league, and on the evening of April 8, Manchester City will challenge Arsenal away.

After 31 rounds of league play, Arsenal has once again been in power, they have risen from sixth in the league at the beginning of the season to third in the league, and currently have 58 points, squeezing Tottenham Hotspur to fourth with 58 points. Because of the advantage of goal difference.

Arsenal have one more goal difference than Tottenham Hotspur.

In the other 32nd round of the league that has ended, Tottenham Hotspur drew 0-0 away from home to Sunderland.

Temporarily overtook Arsenal with 59 points.

But Arsenal's game hasn't been played yet.

If Arsenal can beat Manchester City at home, they will overtake Tottenham Hotspur in points and remain in third place.

But if they lose to Manchester City, they really have to go back to fourth.

Although fourth place could also allow Arsenal to qualify for next season's Champions League. But if you can not participate in the qualifiers, it will be the best result. After all, the Champions League qualifiers start early, which will disrupt Arsenal's summer preparation plans, make Arsenal go into the official game too early, and there may be injuries.

Another important reason is that as sworn enemies in the same city, how could Arsenal let Tottenham Hotspur end up pressing on their heads?

They intend to take advantage of City's hard-fought away Champions League game to strike an all-out blow in the league and remove them from their unbeaten streak of unbeaten status.

Manchester City didn't get them their way, though.

Although Arsenal played well in this game and scored early.

However, the tenacious Manchester City eventually held Arsenal to a draw away from home.

1：1。

The result was not satisfactory for either side - Arsenal drew the game and were still level on points with Tottenham Hotspur, but they were already overtaken by Tottenham Hotspur on goal difference, and Tottenham Hotspur are now third on goal difference.

Manchester City, on the other hand, are only three points ahead of second-placed Manchester United after a draw. Manchester City are now on 82 points and Manchester United are 79.

A game away from each other.

There is also a head-to-head meeting between the two teams in the final stages of the league that would see them level on points if United can beat Manchester City.

However, there is still a huge gap in goal difference between the two sides, with Manchester City now at 65 and Manchester United at 51.

So the safest thing to do is for United to win one more game and pray that City will lose one game or draw a few more.

Judging from Manchester City's current schedule and table, there are more and more draws, and perhaps in the future they may really lose the league title because of too many draws.

Manchester City host West Bromwich Albion on 11 April.

Manchester City did not draw this game, as they thumped West Bromwich Albion 4-0 at home. Glory scored his thirtieth league goal of the season in this game. He is well ahead of the league scorers' charts.

Manchester United, meanwhile, beat Wigan Athletic 1-0 away.

Continue to keep the pressure on Manchester City to catch up.

Manchester United can rest after this game, but Manchester City can't, and in three days they will host Everton in the FA Cup semi-finals.

Manchester City are now leading the league with the Carabao Cup in hand, the Champions League semi-finals and the FA Cup semi-finals.

It looks like they could win on either front.

This is a huge temptation, and at this time, I believe that the Manchester City players themselves will not be willing to give up any competition.

Therefore, in the FA Cup semi-finals, Manchester City will also go all out and play their best.

In fact, Benitez took this into account when he played against West Bromwich Albion, resting a number of players who played against Real Madrid and Arsenal to use a rotational line-up.

Against Everton, City were able to put out their strongest squad.

The FA Cup semi-finals are played at a neutral venue, and since the construction of the new Wembley Stadium, the FA Cup semi-finals and finals have been held at this stadium.

For Manchester City, this is equivalent to a tiring toss on the journey.

But it's all about that, and City can't always complain about the schedule or something.

If you want to win all of them, you have to pay the price.

Everton's side is also the main force to do their best. Hopefully they can knock out Manchester City and get a chance to qualify for the final.

With 33 league games played, Everton are seventh with 47 points, 10 points shy of sixth-placed Chelsea, not to mention fifth-placed Newcastle United.

If Everton are to qualify for next season's European competition, the FA Cup is their only chance and they must get it.

In the semi-finals at Wembley Stadium, it was Everton who scored first.

It does look like Everton's players are more fit than City's.

In the 24th minute, Everton striker Geravich opened the scoring for Everton.

The Everton fans at Wembley Stadium cheered with excitement.

Throughout the first half, it was indeed Everton's table that was better than Manchester City, they controlled the situation, and although Manchester City was rotated, many of the main players were still very tired and could not get into the game.

They were unable to recover until the end of the first half, with Everton going into the break with a one-goal lead.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and there was no difference from the first half at first, but Everton was firmly in control of the situation.

In the 60th minute, Everton's opener Geravich fouled Kaka on his way back and the referee awarded City a free-kick from 25 yards from goal, which was a well-placed free-kick.

Everton were on the verge of being a formidable enemy, and they had a wall of up to six men.

But it didn't work. Glory's left-footed free-kick arced through the wall and flew into the corner of the goal!

"Sakae!! City haven't created any attacking chances that are too dangerous so far, but the advantage of having a lot of stars is that they can always find opportunities that can solve problems by relying on the individual ability of the players! Take this free kick for example! Manchester City's overall form is not good, but that doesn't stop Rong from kicking the ball into the goal! The free-kick was an opportunity that relied solely on the individual ability of the star, and Rong seized it! ”

After the equaliser, Manchester City's overall form picked up, and the players seemed to have left their baggage behind and were more comfortable.

In the 85th minute, Ibrahimovic received a through ball from Kaka and entered the penalty area, where he came to the onrushing goalkeeper Howard and fired a spoon that went past Howard and into the empty net behind him.

It is another manifestation of the individual ability of the star.

Manchester City led Everton 2-1.

The goal at this time can almost be said to be a stunner.

Everton, who conceded two goals in a row, was demoralized, and in the next game, they were also lacking in skills. You can only watch as Manchester City knock them out and reach the FA Cup final!

"It's over! Manchester City have reached the FA Cup final! They have one more title to fight for! ”

Everton's players made a painful exit, while Manchester City players stayed to celebrate the victory with their fans.

The FA Cup final will be played on the evening of May 5 and before that, City have three very important games to play, two Champions League semi-finals and one local derby against Manchester United.

The outcome of those three games could determine what City's FA Cup final will mean - whether it will be the icing on the cake or the title of a masturbation......
