FA Cup semis: Arsenal v Man City in numbers

Arsenal and Manchester City meet at Wembley
on Saturday evening with the aim of becoming our first confirmed
Emirates FA Cup Finalist in 2020.

There’s already a degree of
familiarity between the clubs, with Gunners boss Mikel Arteta having
worked under City manager Pep Guardiola for three years before making
the move to the Emirates Stadium earlier this year.

And they recently faced off in the Premier League, with City running out as 3-0 winners at the Etihad Stadium last month, shortly after the restart.

Messi rages as failing Barca lose LaLiga

Barcelona made it all about the Champions League and after surrendering La Liga to Real Madrid, now it is all they have left.

Winning
the title last season for an eighth time in 11 years was never going to
be enough. Winning the double had not been either the year before.

La Liga and the Copa del Rey had become Barca’s default, their domestic dominance taken for granted and then diminished by disappointment in Europe.
