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.

Man City's Haaland creating 'problems' with hat tricks - Pep (ESPN)

Pep Guardiola said Erling Haaland is creating a "problem" for himself because he has been so good he's expected to score hat tricks in every game.

It's an honour to play Bayern and the semifinal in Wembley again. "We're in a good moment, definitely," Guardiola said. "This guy will have a problem in the future, people expect every game he scores three or four goals and this isn't going to happen," Guardiola said.

Vincent Kompany wrapped in tough love of Erling Haaland-fueled ... (Sporting News)

Vincent Kompany took his in-form Burnley side to Manchester City on an emotionally charged day when Erling Haaland again stole the headlines.

Shortly afterwards, he was gone, eliciting a cheer from young fans outside the media room not old enough to remember all his finest deeds as a player. “The biggest thing for me is that his game can still improve and he looks to me like a superstar who is still willing to improve and that’s exciting to see. Kompany was still at it on the touchline, wringing all he could out of a surreal day. Guardiola was a comparatively less visible touchline presence during the early knockings and he slumped in his chair with some thinking to do. A warm embrace with Pep Guardiola followed, and the Burnley manager struggled to deliver some final instructions to Vitinho above the din of his City anthem to the tune of Simon and Garfunkel’s Mrs. City went through the gears after halftime as Haaland added another matchball to his bulging collection and Julian Alvarez scored two goals courtesy of Kevin De Bruyne assists. A buoyant cup atmosphere was in full swing by the time Kompany emerged from the tunnel to rapturous applause, having stopped off to exchange pleasantries with Mike Summerbee, a City great from their previous golden era of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Erling Haaland existed on the margins for the first half hour, but the best players always use this time to gather information. When the Norway striker won a long punt from Ortega, he timed his run to collect Julian Alvarez’s return ball and outfoxed Burnley goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell with a deft one-touch finish. Kompany’s ex-teammate Craig Bellamy was among the first batch of post-takeover signings in January 2009 and proved a popular player during a brief and occasionally tumultuous stay. Signed from Hamburg for £6 million, Kompany joined City at the very end of that era on August 22, 2008. He’d have chalked up many more but for recurrent debilitating calf injuries, but those struggles simply endeared Kompany to the City faithful even more.

Ex-City trio heap praise on Haaland and Alvarez (Manchester City FC)

“Or do you want to go into that game on the back of their tough games and results? David James added: “I think breaks can be good. “I think it’s great for the team because it can get very intense, but now they can go away with their country and get a little break and then it’s ‘great, I’m going back to my club – I’ll go away for the international break but we’re in great form and I’m looking forward to playing more good football.’” “I think Pep said we need to be at 100% every game a few months ago and that’s not to just compete with Arsenal, that’s for the FA Cup and the Champions League,” he said. “His second goal was ridiculous - not only did he create space for Kevin to play the ball – and what a pass that was – and the defender did ever so well to get back, but then he chopped inside and had the composure to finish. “He premeditates where the ball is going to go and then it's just about getting his body in the right position of how he wants to finish - but with the
