Guardiola Confirms Nico O’Reilly Will Play in Man City’s FA Cup Semi-Final
Pep Guardiola has confirmed that young midfielder Nico O’Reilly will be part of Manchester City’s squad for their FA Cup semi-final clash against Nottingham Forest in April.
The City boss made this known after his team’s hard-fought 2-1 win over Bournemouth in the FA Cup quarter-finals on Sunday.
Guardiola praised O’Reilly’s performance, describing his impact as exceptional. The youngster had already caught attention earlier in the competition by scoring twice against Plymouth.
“Nico scored two goals against Plymouth, and his impact today was outstanding,” Guardiola told ITV. “He is going to play in the semi-final for sure!”
City secured their spot in the semi-finals thanks to goals from Erling Haaland and Omar Marmoush. They will now take on Nottingham Forest, who progressed after a dramatic penalty shootout win over Brighton.
Next up for the Premier League champions is a league fixture against Leicester City on Wednesday.
Ghanaian Referee, Daniel Laryea, who officiated the Nigeria vs Morocco game in AFCON gets interviews and shared his experience.
The referee reveals how it was his first time in a semi final and was kind of nervous. “I’ve been to three AFCON tournaments, but this is the first time I’ve been in a semi-final.”
“So when coaches choose you for that game, they know your skills and what you can do. But of course, you feel a little nervous because of the level of the match.”
Nigerian Footballer, Bright Osayi-Samuel , react to match as Super Eagles lose to Morocco.
The player calls out CAF for their referee appointment. He shares how the Ghanaian Referee was tough on the field and made bad choices.
“One thing I would say is that the referee was really bad. I’m not saying that was the reason we lost. He is making really bad choices and it’s really tough to watch because we have referees like this in big games like today.
He then praises Morocco for a good game “But Morocco did really well.”
Super Eagles Coach, Eric Chelle speaks and shared why Nigeria lost the AFCON match to Morocco.
It can be noted that the match was held on the 14th of January, 2026. Nigeria lost the match with a draft in the penalties, 4-2.
During a recent interview, Chelle shared his observations about the match and shared why they lost.
“From a technical point of view, the Super Eagles weren’t at the same level as we displayed in our other matches.”
“I don’t want to say the reason was fatigue, but the truth is that we lacked movement and power.”
