Guradiola maybe focus on Man United match more than this one, Haaland and De Bruyne, the best two players in Man City were sitting aside at the start of the match, Guardiola tried to fix the situation in the second half, but Sauthampton was solid enough to defend their win. However, this match has nothing to do with the match against Man United as EPL is much more important competition for a team like Man City, so I think Man City will be totally different.

Southampton 2-0 Manchester City

Shock of the day, Southampton have beaten Manchester City
Of course, this result is very surprising because City, who are perched at the top of the English Premier League, are clearly more favored. Moreover, Southampton is currently struggling in the league standings. City manager Pep Guardiola believes his team deserved to lose. Pep Guardiola admitted that Man City was not at his best level. In fact, the manager did not deny that his concoction team did not deserve to win. City are not ready to serve Southampton

I won't lie this is a complete bad performance from Manchester City ahead of the derby game against Manchester United what message are they passing to Manchester United, that they are not in a good form Southampton wasn't creative enough but I wonder how they did convert those two goals against City last night. Pep Guardiola also said City won't get a good performance if they are to repeat same against Manchester United. As expected, if Southampton doesn't buckle up they are going to be relegated.

On paper this should clearly be Manchester United vs Newcastle United in the final.

I agree. Man United is definitely a better team than Nottingham Forest but you never know. Maybe Nottingham manages to win just like Southampton won against Man City. I guess we have to wait and see how the semi final games will end, but I definitely expect Newcastle to face Man United in the final game.

It was a surprise to see Southampton beat Manchester City but Guardiola put out a fairly strong team to start with which should have won the game. As a back up he introduced Haaland and De Bruyne as second half substitutes but they could not turn the game around. Congratulations to Southampton, they will make it very difficult for Newcastle.

On paper this should clearly be Manchester United vs Newcastle United in the final.

Well this is a nice surprise that Southampton beat Man City in the quarter final. This definitely gives more chances to Newcastle to advance to the final but I guess they should be careful playing against Southampton. If they manage to beat Man City with two goals, they will probably be a tough nut to crack in the semi final.

@JollyGood what a run Rashford is having, and I’m surprised at this because there was a rumour at the start of the season that he would be sold and now the club better offer him some good wages and extend his contract before some big club distracts him with a better offer.
Rashford is having his best season under MU new coach. He has been a normal name on Manchester United list of scorers in almost every game he has played this season. I am personally very impressed with his form and excited because he is going to play against Manchester City in this form, and the chances of him scoring plus Manchester United winning high as well.

Lastly Newcastle definitely deserves a trophy for the way they have been playing, but as a Manchester United fan I can’t wish against my club hence if they both reach the finals then it’ll be really difficult for me to just cheer for my beloved club as part of me will always know that even Newcastle deserves to win this trophy.
I don't think the form that Newcastle are on is a one time thing, even if they can't get a cup this season. they will be better next season most likely and the chances of winning a trophy still there.

It's the confidence given to him from the management and coach is all that keeps him going knowing very well that he has the backing of the manager. The coach has told him to be in the right position at all times that he'll find himself scoring as much as he can. The form looks like he'll do same again against Manchester City. I still won't be surprised if he does. The Injury of Dalot isn't too serious, he came off so as to avoid further damages the coach considers him a potential for the upcoming Europa league game against Barcelona.
Newcastle improvement will continue game after game I love the  gradual steps they take last night, they made football looked wonderful.

Rashford scoring twice in their 3-0 win over Charlton after coming on as a substitute was more proof he is enjoying playing again. He suffered a serious dip in form over the last season but he is looking like a world class player again. He will be offered a new contract but it seems the club is reluctant to break £250,000 per week barrier for any player.

As for Newcastle, they have to win their semi-final before they get to the final and there is no guarantee they can do it. They might have to wait longer before winning their first major trophy since 1955.

Newcastle United 2-0 Leicester City


Charlton played well and kept positive throughout most of the game but eventually the Rashford substitution ended any hope they had of equalising. He two goals after coming on as a sub. Manchester United are through to the semi-finals.

Newcastle United have not won a major trophy for 54 years but they beat Leicester City 2-0 to reach the semi-finals. Could this be their first major trophy in over half a century?

I really hope that Newcastle will win this one. They are really playing good and they have a good streak in the Premiership. The problem is that they will probably face Man City in the semi final and that will be a though game for them to win. But if they continue with great games, I guess they can win. They last game they played in Premiership ended in a draw with six goals so I expect a good game in the semi final.

These are the Carabao Cup quarter-final games being played today:

Nottingham Forest vs Wolverhampton Wanderers
Southampton vs Manchester City


Manchester United and Newcastle United won their quarter-final games last night and both are through to the semi-finals. I would expect Manchester City and Nottingham Forest to join them by winning their games tonight.


Newcastle will definitely win one trophy this season, I trust this current squad and their determinations. They have been so solid this season.  It's obvious that money has a lot to do in football. Ever since the Arabic money entered Newcastle the team has changed with the kind of quality players they brought in.
Winning, Leicester by 2nill is not a surprised to me,  I really don't want Newcastle to play Manchester united in the semi finals. I'm scared as man UTD fan
Newcastle have been knocked out of the FA Cup and are not going to win the Premier League therefore the Carabao Cup is their only realistic opportunity to win a trophy but they have to will have to face Manchester United and probably Manchester City before they can win it therefore I cannot say they will definitely win a trophy this season. Having said that I like your confidence in them  Smiley

I really hope that Newcastle will win this one. They are really playing good and they have a good streak in the Premiership. The problem is that they will probably face Man City in the semi final and that will be a though game for them to win. But if they continue with great games, I guess they can win. They last game they played in Premiership ended in a draw with six goals so I expect a good game in the semi final.
Newcastle United have surpassed their own expectations this season. If they did not win a trophy but ended the season in a Champions League spot they would gladly accept it but they are so close to winning a first major trophy after 54 years therefore they have to go all out to try to win their semi-final game and make it to the final.

With a decent first half performance from Manchester United the feels like one that would sure end in the favor of the host Manchester United as they will seek to end the game immediately so they can relax to face Manchester City on Saturday at home once again.
Beautiful goal from the Brazilian talent as he strucked that ball in, so far the middle looks poor but Fred has been impressive. Sad to see Dalot leave of the pitch early as he will be a big loss for the game against City. Anyone noticing Harry Maguire, so far he has no mistakes if he has it has to be one all long passes have also been so accurate.

Highly pressured Newcastle from start to ending but Leicester City have bought enough time holding them down to the second half of the game.

I think Manchester United and Newcastle United should win the games especially by having home advantage. Charlton and Leicester seem to be way out of their depth in any hope winning their respective games.

Before I did not know about the existence of such a tournament (Carabao Cup). I always thought that it was all one Premier League, which has the English Cup.
It turns out there is another quite interesting tournament in England.
As well as the Premier League, there are the FA Cup and EFL Cup (also known as Carabao Cup) that are played for every season by the top teams. The FA Cup is open to all teams including non-professional and semi-professional teams from outside the four leagues but the Carabao Cup are open to all teams across the top four leagues.

yes, I also just listened to this cup because I saw Manchester City's match against Liverpool and Manchester City won that match, I thought it was the English league, it turned out to be another league cup, I enjoyed watching many matches, especially seeing the game of Manchester City and interestingly Manchester city has eliminated defending champion liverpool, waiting for the next game
After the World Cup games, it is quite difficult to return seeing normal games being played but City - Liverpool one was good.
I didn't see the others, as I see all the remaining EPL teams in the Cup passed to the next stage except Brighton which was quite surprising.
In the quarter final, Newcastle - Leicester will be the hardest one, the remaining games aren't that difficult for City, ManU or Wolves normally.

yes, almost all clubs in the EPL qualify for the next round, I think Manchester City have to beat several other clubs there, although I'm sure Manchester City can overcome Newcastle and Manchester United, at least we can see Manchester City win the EFL cup later
