Manchester City Takes on Plymouth Argyle in FA Cup Fifth Round Game
Manchester City is set to host Plymouth Argyle at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday, March 1, 2025, in the fifth round of the FA Cup. The match kicks off at 17:45 GMT (12:45 ET / 09:45 PT) and will be broadcast live on ITV4 and ITVX in the UK.
Manchester City enters this fixture aiming to secure their first trophy of the season. In their FA Cup campaign, they have shown resilience, notably coming from behind to defeat Leyton Orient in the previous round.
Plymouth Argyle, under the new leadership of manager Miron Muslic, have displayed remarkable form, achieving impressive victories over Premier League sides Brentford and Liverpool to reach this stage.
Manager Pep Guardiola has reported no fresh injury concerns following their recent victory over Tottenham. Midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, who was an unused substitute in that match, is pushing for a start.
Given the importance of upcoming fixtures, Guardiola may rotate his squad, potentially resting key players like Erling Haaland. Omar Marmoush could lead the line, supported by the creative trio of Phil Foden, De Bruyne, and Jack Grealish.
Former footballer Paul Scholes condemns Martin Odegaard and speaks on his performance in the Arsenal team.
The football legend shared how it is the captain that is bringing the team down, as he is not playing his position properly “That game on Saturday [Arsenal vs Newcastle], I didn’t see all of it, I probably saw the first half an hour, but I think Odegaard is a big problem for them.”
“I love Odegaard, I think he’s brilliant. Technically, he’s great, but he doesn’t play his position properly. Half the time I saw him in the first 20 minutes, he was almost the deepest man.”
Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.
It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.
Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
It has been reported that a four-year ban has been placed on Chelsea’s player, Mykhailo Mudryk, for anti-doping violations.
The player appealed in court on February 25 but has now been handed his punishment, which is a four-year ban from football.
It can be recalled that his last appearance on the field was on November 28, 2024.
