Manchester City booked their place in the final of the FA Cup after a hard-fought victory over Southampton, extending their remarkable run to a fourth consecutive final appearance.
Southampton kept City at bay and then delivered what looked like a famous FA Cup moment when Finn Azaz curled them in front with 11 minutes remaining.
However, City kept on knocking on the door against a stubborn Saints defence and Jeremy Doku’s deflected effort on 82 minutes drew them level.

Extra-time looked on the cards but Nico Gonzalez produced a moment of Premier League quality to win the game with a rasping strike from 25 yards that flew into the top corner.
For a few minutes, Southampton dreamt of emulating their 1976 cup heroes by booking a return to the final on the 50th anniversary of that triumph but it was City’s treble quest that remained alive.
City will play either Leeds or Chelsea in the final.
