FA Cup review - 15/16 February 2014

The FA Cup fifth round matches took place over the weekend and Man City beat Chelsea by two goals to nil. 

This was a good win for Man City and keeps them on track to win four trophies. For Man City this win against Chelsea would have worried their domestic rivals about the ease in which they beat Chelsea. 

For Chelsea this would have been very disappointing. The fact they were unable to score any goals was very strange. 

However it means that they now focus on the titles they are chasing so it could end up being a blessing in the sky. 

On Sunday Arsenal beat Liverpool by two goals to one. This result comes after Liverpool beat Arsenal by five goals to one in the premiership last week. 

Arsenal played well and it was a surprise line up which included  Lukas Fabianski, Yaya Sanogo and the returning Mathieu Flamini. 

For large parts of the game Arsenal where in complete control but Liverpool played well and where robbed of a penalty which might have least given them a draw. 

Arsene Wenger's  gamble paid off as he rested at least four first team players. Which gave an opportunity for players like Yaya Sanago to come on and help to secure the win. 

For Liverpool this would have been a tough loss so soon after beating Arsenal so comprehensively last weekend. It also
means that they can focus on winning the premiership or at the very least a top four finish.
