Pep Guardiola’s side have extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 22 matches.
Man City boss Pep Guardiola has made tribute to his squad after making into the semifinals of FA Cup 2023-24. The Cityzens secured a 2-0 victory over Newcastle in the FA Cup quarter-finals on Saturday evening.
Bernardo Silva scored two goals to push Man City for a silverware this season. It was their record-breaking sixth consecutive FA Cup semi-final at Wembley.
Pep’s men have extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 22 matches. They are going stronger to chase treble. They are sitting third in the table with just one point behind Arsenal. They already moved to the quarterfinals of the Champions League where they will meet Real Madrid.
Guardiola speaks at his post-match press conference, “To expect [to be] coming back from the last international break with two months left and be in contention for all the titles means a lot.”
“People talk about the Premier League and Champions League but when you win four Carabao Cups in a row and get to six FA Cup semi-finals in a row, this team and this club has something special.
“We want to win all of them but sometimes it is not possible because of the quality of the opponents and the schedule we have.
“I remember playing away in the quarter-finals of the Champions League and then at Wembley is so difficult. To arrive in your best condition in those situations is difficult but we were there.
“Always you can have a bad night but when you have six times in a row [FA Cup semi-finals], you have less bad nights. This is the consistency that proves people who doubt the team wrong.”
