Gary Lineker labels Kepa Arrizabalaga the 'Poundshop Emi Martinez' after Chelsea goalkeeper's antics fail to distract Julian Alvarez ahead of Man City's first penalty - which the striker converted during huge 4-0 FA Cup win

Gary Lineker has mocked Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga for trying to play mind games on Julian Alvarez before his penalty in Manchester City's 4-0 victory in the FA Cup.

The 28-year-old started for the Blues in their third round clash and conceded three times in the first-half thanks to goals from Riyad Mahrez, Julian Alvarez and Phil Foden.

City took the lead through Mahrez before being awarded a penalty just before the half hour mark after Chelsea forward Kai Havertz handled the ball inside the area.
