Man City Beats Bournemouth 2-1, O'Reilly Shines in FA Cup

Manchester City secured a 2-1 comeback victory over Bournemouth in the FA Cup quarter-finals, thanks to a standout performance from 20-year-old Nico O'Reilly, who provided two crucial assists after coming off the bench at halftime. City faced an early setback, missing a penalty and conceding a goal to Bournemouth's Evanilson before O'Reilly's introduction revitalized their attack. He set up Erling Haaland for the equalizer shortly after the break and later assisted Omar Marmoush for the winning goal. This victory allows City to advance to the semi-finals, where they will face Nottingham Forest. O'Reilly's performance marked his first assists for the club and made him the first City substitute to assist two goals in a single match since December 2021. Despite a challenging season overall, the win provided a glimmer of hope for City fans as they aim for silverware in the FA Cup.
