HIGHLIGHTS | Swindon 1-4 Man City | Bernardo, Jesus, Gundogan, Palmer goals!

it is a trophy which signified the re-emergence of the blues back in 2011 when they won it for the first time since 1969. the fa cup meant a great deal back then it is just as special now and with the blues flying high at the top of the premier league their insatiable quest for silverware means this opening tie at fourth tier swindon town is an important one for the club as a city advance with xiao cancelo plays a lovely ball in and city had a great chance through bernardo silva and outside it goes to cole palmer in the right wing position on that trusty left boot into the penalty area here he goes and city will take the lead bernardo silva lovely little sort of surge forward by cole palmer and he hid it in low and bernardo silva lost his marker and prodded it over the line from maybe only about a meter from the goal it was an unmissable chance it was brilliant from cole palmer and inside the first 14 minutes of the game city hit the front they've been dominant they've been the better side you would imagine that would have been the case cult palmer was outstanding and the run from bernardo silva exceptional to get away from his marker and just tuck it over the line and city already in front they've been threatening a goal they now have one and bernardo silva who effectively is playing in the false nine position just got away from his marker and tucked it into the unguarded goal it's a goal for bernardo silva but it is a tremendous assist from cole palmer city are really trying to make it difficult for them and they've won it back on the edge of the area only goes towards jesus who must score and does score and swindon's insistence on playing it out from the back seemed at best to be a risk in many ways it was naive and their errors in trying to play out from the back of cost them dearly premier league sides have found to their cost it's not easy to play out from the back and gabrielle jesus makes it 2-0 well you can say it's brave or you could say it's complete stupidity playing out in front of manchester city with that sort of press you've got to be very good at giving but you can see straight away the setup they'll let you play the first one they realize they study it they know exactly where you're gonna go where your next pass is the weight for the first one let you do it play it into midfield and then straight away the press is on wonderful little ball in see the manager just scratching his head and no wonder normally you get away with it but whether you're up tight a little bit tense against manchester city but gabrielle jesus very cool great ball great sort of way to pass from kevin de bruyne and gabrielle doesn't miss from there [Applause] hits a brilliant goal into the roof of the net [Applause] city took the corner and it just went to joe cancello it's amazing how close it was ali when you see it back just literally very very close oh well it deceived me it deserves my eyes playing tricks i thought it got into the room for the net certainly no signs of any concussion or anything like that and said he's now got a free kick it's just about shooting range and gunduan's gone for what a wonderful free kick that was he hit it low he bent it round the wall and there was a little gap just at the far side and he just found it it was almost as if he was placing it rather than whacking it and city now have a three-goal lead ilkai gunduan what a sweet free kick that was yeah it was a great free kick but you've got to look they've got the little draft excluder in behind the wall but the wall's not far enough over the goalkeeper and the man warm sort of lining up we're responsible that he can't go around the wall lewis ward is in today because joseph wolocott's gone off for african nations the regular goalkeeper he's got to be so disappointed that that's allowed at this level these players don't miss it yes it's a great finish the great curling free kick round the wall but the wall's terrible it's got to be further across you just never know the way city have played in this game and here they come again they get to the edge of the penalty area and they've won a free kick right on the edge of the penalty area it couldn't have been closer to being on the edge of the sorry i think he's given a penalty he has given a penalty well there isn't much of an argument from the swindon players and jay zeus takes his time and is saved well he took one of those little shimmies just before he strikes it hoping the goalkeeper would shift his weight the goalkeeper didn't shift his weight he waited and then dived the correct way to save from jesus got to stay to the goalkeeper's left once he doesn't step you to stay where you are but he still drags it wasn't the most composed penalties gets it all wrong should be better than that city now have the ball inside the penalty area with ilkai gundaman who has a shot and it's well saved carried out for a corner ilkai gunduan looking for his second goal good save by the goalkeeper yeah it was a good save wasn't it ill kai gun doing getting to a good area opens up his body as soon as he sees the goal left footed right across the goalie the good save to comfortable and he'd expect him to make nice and slow from city we're in the final third still though palmer now on towards the run of gunduan gunduan hit it low it was saved by the legs of the goalkeeper gunduan very close to adding another goal to his talent he's come close on a couple of occasions since he scored he has it about the forward run the timing the awareness good little pass called palmer just into the stride of okay gun tries to pull it back it's running out of that space goalkeeper just gets a foot on it to see it away but it's a better forward run better play again but more opportunities more opening in creative city forward comes swindon now looking for a chance to get a ball into the back of the city net and the shot does go into the back of the city net and it's the guy mckenna mccurdy who scored four goals against northampton town a few days ago and he's put swindon maybe back into the cup tie first the lack of concentration some little flicks right in front of the city dug out but at that point when the flicker with back heels jack cancelo and rodri wasn't sure he's had a yellow card to commit to make that challenge and as i said johnny williams has that experience he has that know-how she drives through the center he realizes the overlap bears and mccurdy drills it hard and low stepping down left hand side he'd be disappointed to be beaten at his near post for the doubts the mistakes that have got to cut out the one opportunity we could he gets he puts it away i said he could finish inside the penalty area but palmer's been forced away from goal city still have it with bernardo silva it reaches uh reaches palmer again and palmer curls a beauty into the corner of the net maize deserved a goal tonight cole palmer it's by no means his first goal for the city first team it's his third and he scored in the fa cup he scored in the carabao cup and he scored in the champions league that's three of the four tournaments mastered the way this guy's playing don't bank against him getting his first champions league goal colt palmer makes it 4-1 incredible finish colt farmer he's actually intelligent not to play the ball across when i'm thinking could he could he just play it across and an advantage for somebody else was bernardo takes it on i said he likes that one across the goalkeeper when he opens that left foot it's an incredible finish you watch it just moves and literally enough the the top of the bar and the post postage stamp and referee concludes proceedings well to be absolutely truthful city's first half performance was absolutely immense bernardo silva and gabrielle jay zoo scoring the two first half goals that put this game really out of the reach of the four-tier team swindon town gunduan made it three and though makurdi pulled one back city were always in cruise control and then cole palmer city's man of the match in many ways made it 4-1 city had plenty of other chances beside and in truth should have got more than the four goals particularly as gabrielle jay zeus had a penalty save but all in all considering the problem city have had with kobid and the absentees tonight it really was a ruthless display by the blues who cruise into the fourth round of the fa cup swindling town one city four [Applause]
