Manchester City v Burnley: FA Cup quarter-final – live (The Guardian)

Minute-by-minute report: Can Vincent Kompany sink his old club's FA Cup hopes as Burnley travel to Manchester City? Find out with Scott Murray.

The ball was begging to be bundled over the line. The Lineker Affair wasn’t the first time a prime-time light entertainment star wandered off piste in search of a greater truth. And no wonder: pretty sure they’d have settled at the start of the season for winning the Championship in style. Cork is extremely fortunate not to go into the referee’s notebook. Then suddenly Rodri sends a diagonal ball towards Walker on the right-hand edge of the box. The ball pings off the top of Beyer’s head and out for a corner. He enters the box, drops a shoulder to see off Maatsen, then rolls across to tee up Alvarez for a simple tap-in. City soon come again, Phillips striding into the box down the same flank and sending a screamer over the bar from a tight angle. Alvarez drops a shoulder to see off Al Dakhil, jinks inside, and absolutely roofs his shot into the net. 83 min: Cullen sweeps a cross in from the left. 87 min: De Bruyne dribbles down the inside left channel and draws a clumsy foul from Cullen. According to Gary Lineker on the BBC, Erling Haaland has spent the last two matches scoring goals at the rate of one every 15 minutes and 45 seconds.
