On Sunday, April 27, in London at Wembley Stadium, Manchester City and Nottingham Forest face off in the FA Cup semi-final.

Just two minutes in, the "Citizens" took the lead. Rico Lewis capitalized on a pass from Kovacic and from the edge of the penalty area opened the scoring.

According to the statistical portal Opta Joe, the talented Englishman made Manchester City history with an interesting record. The England international became the youngest player for the team to score at Wembley since Steve MacKenzie in May 1981.

Let's not forget, Guardiola's squad is fiercely battling for a top-5 spot in the Premier League, which would secure a place in next season's Champions League. Meanwhile, the FA Cup remains the only tournament City can still win this season.

It should be noted that Crystal Palace became the first finalist, having defeated Aston Villa in the semi-final. The "Eagles" have reached the tournament's decisive match for the third time in history but have yet to claim a victory.
