Guardiola promises to play O'Reilly in FA Cup semi-final

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has promised to play midfielder Nico O'Reilly in the FA Cup semi-final.

O'Reilly provided two assists in Manchester City's win over Bournemouth on Sunday, replacing Abdukadir Khusanov at half-time.

Guardiola said O'Reilly impressed in the previous round and the 20-year-old Englishman will be available for the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley in four weeks' time.

- "Nico scored two goals against Plymouth and he had a positive impact on the game today. He will definitely play in the semi-finals!

He played very well. At the same time, we must not forget that he is an attacking midfielder. He is fast, very intelligent and handles the ball well, he always creates dangerous situations in front of the opponent's goal," said Guardiola.

As a reminder, the "city" will face Nottingham Forest in the semi-finals of the competition. The meeting will take place on April 26. Follow “Zamin” news on “Telegram”
