Man City vs Newcastle LIVE! FA Cup result, match stream and latest updates today
Holders Manchester City cruised into the semi-finals of the FA Cup thanks to two deflected strikes from Bernardo Silva that gave them a 2-0 win over a lacklustre Newcastle United at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
City took the lead in the 13th minute when a Silva shot took a wicked deflection off Newcastle defender Dan Burn, wrong-footing keeper Martin Dubravka and sending the ball looping into the net.
The home side went 2-0 up in the 31st minute and again it was Portuguese playmaker Silva cutting in from the right and shooting, with Sven Botman's head helping to steer the ball past Dubravka this time.
City join Coventry City, who pulled off a shock 3-2 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers earlier in the day, in the draw for the semi-finals which will be made after Sunday's remaining quarter-final ties featuring Chelsea against Leicester City and Manchester United versus Liverpool.

“I’m sure he’s part of the project for the next years. Definitely.”

Kevin De Bruyne out but Jack Grealish could face Newcastle in FA Cup
15:16 , Jonathan Gorrie
Manchester City will be without Kevin De Bruyne for Saturday’s FA Cup quarter-final game against Newcastle United, but Jack Grealish is back in contention.
The Belgian star has been struggling with a groin strain, and played through the pain against Liverpool last time out, and was subsequently left out of Belgium’s squad for friendlies against England and Ireland.
When is the FA Cup semi-final draw?
15:07 , Jonathan Gorrie
The semi-finals of the FA Cup will be drawn this weekend.
Coventry were the first team to book their trip to Wembley with a dramatic 3-2 win away at Wolves.
Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United are among the teams who could join them should they overcome their respective quarter-finals.
United’s trip to Anfield is surely the standout fixture, while holders Man City are strong favourites to beat Newcastle on Saturday.
The Blues, meanwhile, are under pressure to beat Championship leaders Leicester are they look to return to the country’s national stadium after losing the Carabao Cup final there last month.
Here’s everything you need to know about the FA Cup semi-final draw.

Newcastle and Howe boast such a bad record at the Etihad that it would be a major surprise to see City knocked out.
Man City to win 3-1.
Newcastle team news vs Man City today
15:01 , Jonathan Gorrie
Newcastle, meanwhile, are hopeful Anthony Gordon will be fit to play despite coming off against Chelsea. Eddie Howe said on Friday: "It was a strange one because initially when you see a player come off like that you do fear that there is a serious injury.
“But he partly trained yesterday, he joined in and did okay so I don't think he did anything serious which is great news for us. We train again today, we will make a judgement after that."
Kieran Trippier is missing, while all of Joelinton, Sandro Tonali, Nick Pope, Harvey Barnes and Callum Wilson are unavailable.
