    FA Youth Cup: Clevedon Town Under-18s await Manchester City

    There'll be more cup action for Man City tomorrow night, but in very contrasting surroundings, as their Under-18s travel to minnows Clevedon Town in the FA Youth Cup third round.

    The Somerset Floodlight Youth League club have made it through five rounds to host the Premier League side.

    They pay to play and they're normally watched by around 50 people, but around 1,500 fans are set to turn up - and you can read more about them here.

    If you're planning the rest of your evening, just a little flag up that there is no extra time tonight, with penalties after 90 minutes if required.

    Credit to the Leicester City fans for not booing Mahrez. Seems the done thing these days so credit where it is due.

  8. 'Disappointing from Leicester'published at 20:35 Greenwich Mean Time 18 December 2018

    Leicester 0-1 Man City

    Stephen Warnock
    Ex-Liverpool defender on BBC Radio 5 live

    Disappointing from Leicester at times but Manchester City have been excellent.

    The movement of the ball, passing it side to side and intricate play, this is a tough night for Leicester but they are only 1-0 down and with changes they can get back into the game in the second half.

    City smothered Leicester and it is great for the young players coming in to play with the top players. When I came in for the competition it was all youth and you needed senior players to talk you through the game.

    Kevin de Bruyne does on the pitch was others can't do and see.

    Manchester City are leading and dominating possession, but I am not convinced that Pep Guardiola is happy with the performance. He looks frustrated as he prowls the edge of his technical area.

    John Stones received a verbal volley from his manager a few moments ago. I am not entirely sure the England defender is enjoying his midfield role this evening.

    Good spell to end the half by Leicester, 17-year-old City defender Eric Garcia is turned well by Demarai Gray but then does well to block a shot behind for a corner.

    Demarai Gray is one of those players that can open up this Manchester City defence, let him run at them.

    An absolute possession clinic from Manchester City. Danny Ward in the Leicester goal has made the most passes for the hosts, with 15.

    It's a huge ask for Burton, a team from the third tier, to reach the semi finals. But it has been done recently by Sheffield United and Bradford City, who were in League Two when they reached the final...

    There was a moment there when Man City goalkeeper Arijanit Muric was way off his line to cut out the ball.

    He does not want to boot it up field, he takes a touch and feeds it to a defender so they can play out form the back calm and composed.

    Lovely footwork from Arijanet Muric as the City keeper comes out to sweep up, well outside of his area, and just casually plays a pass into the feet of Kevin de Bruyne.

    Kelechi Iheanacho then has a chance for the hosts but leans back and skies it.

    Brahim Diaz and Phil Foden look very at home in this Manchester City side. It's a machine now isn't it, so well prepped. Well Pepped. Doesn't really matter who comes in, the style and fashion of the game is the same.

    Sergio Aguero has been quiet so far but he's almost in on goal - just offside from Foden's pass.
