Bernardo Silva praises 'unbelievable' Nico O'Reilly after Man City youngster set up two goals in FA Cup win against Bournemouth as Pep Guardiola insists the starlet will start in the semi-final

Bernardo Silva described Nico O'Reilly as 'unbelievable' following the youngster's major impact against Bournemouth in the FA Cup.

City were trailing 1-0 following a lacklustre first half but O'Reilly then entered the fray and had a transformative effect on the game as his side secured their place in the semi-finals with a 2-1 victory.

O'Reilly, who featured at left-back, provided assists for Erling Haaland and Omar Marmoush.

In the previous round against Plymouth O'Reilly scored a brace, while he was also on the scoresheet against Salford earlier in the competition.
