Losing 2-0 to Wigan suddenly doesn’t appear that bad! The Latics, who beat West Ham in the fourth round, stunned in form Man City 1-0 at the DW to book a last eight clash against Southampton. Saints could become Wigan’s fourth Premier League scalp (after AFCB, WHUFC and MCFC) in this season’s FA Cup campaign if they go down to Paul Cook’s League One side in March.
West Ham had Arthur Masuaku sent off in that game- Man City had Fabian Delph dismissed in this one, and like David Moyes’ side, effectively played one half with ten men. Will Grigg scored both goals against the Hammers- it was he who scored the winner against City as well, and made himself the top goal scorer in the FA Cup this season, taking his tally to 7.
Plenty of drama off the field too, with Guardiola involved in an altercation in the tunnel and Aguero seen fighting with a Wigan fan after the final whistle.
