Jonger van Manchester City, Nico O'Reilly, scored twice to save the blushing of his illustrious teammates and to deny championships Plymouth still a famous FA Cup head skin.
Match report
Seven glorious minutes, those beautiful, floating, vocal 7,800-copy Plymouth support, which made the 560-Mile tour to the north, knowing that they would only be at home in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Maksym Talovierov, a 24-year January recovery of Lask, whose parents in the Ukrainian capital Kiev, had went into the corner of Matthew Sorinola and looked at the air in celebration as the fans of Argyle celebrated.
After they had eliminated the Premier League leaders Liverpool in the previous round, they were about to beat one of the giants of English football?
With a little help from Schipper Kevin De Bruyne, O'Reilly did not decide.
In the first half of the stopping time, De Bruyne, who has been involved in more FA Cup goals since his debut in the competition than anyone else, is curled in a brilliant free kick that O'Reilly went home.
When, 14 minutes from time, after Plymouth goalkeeper Conor Hazard had produced a brilliant double salvation to deny Erling Haaland and Bernardo Silva, O'Reilly was at hand on the distant pole to nod De Bruyne's corner.
The goal was a destructive blow to Plymouth, whose hope was ended in the last minute when De Bruyne turned home the low cross of Haaland of four meters at home.
The result confirmed the status of the city as overwhelming favorites for the game and keeps Pep Guardiola looking for a third victory in a tournament that he “loves”.
But the Plymouth fans can be proud of the performance of their team on that long journey home, because they have supported them to the limit with their wonderful support.
