      Aston Villa 2 Cardiff 0: Asensio double as Emery’s side labour to win to become first team in FA Cup quarter-final pot

      by

      MARCO ASENSIO has won 17 major honours with Real Madrid and Paris Saint Germain.But the Spaniard only has one Spanish and one French Cup to show for his efforts.Marco Asensio was the man of the hour as Aston Villa beat Cardiff 2-0Credit: PAVilla have now booked a place in the quarter-finalsCredit: GettyHowever he set himself up for a crack at a unique hat-trick at Wembley in May by firing the double which sent Aston Villa into their first FA Cup quarter-final since 2015.With a little help from another FA Cup newcomer… semi-automated offside technology!The new high-tec system was a hit as it swiftly decided Marcus Rashford was marginally ONSIDE in the build up to Asensio’s breakthrough goal after 68 minutes.Youri Tielemans’ clever chip sprang the former Manchester United man who was playing on the shoulder of a Cardiff defender.Read More in FootballAnd when Rashford squared the ball, Asensio swept the ball past Ethan Horvath to finally break the Bluebirds resistance.Normally we might have spent five minutes waiting for blue and red lines to be drawn and scrutinised.Here the job was done in seconds – and so were Cardiff – when Asensio added a second 12 minutes later to finally bury the Welsh club.There was a sense of “Friends Reunited,” prior to kick-off with plenty of connections between both clubs.Most read in FA CupCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSVilla played a classy tribute to their former striker and ex-Bluebird Peter Whittingham on their giant video screens before the teams emerged.And there was a banner raised to remember the popular forward who tragically died aged just 35 in March 2020 after suffering a fatal head injury in a fall.Ruben Amorim brings up Marcus Rashford as he vows to talk to Garnacho after Man Utd star stormed down tunnelTwo former Villans, Anwar El Ghazi and Callum Robinson led Cardiff out, with El Ghazi’s two sons among the mascots.There was also a reunion with Villa for Cardiff midfielder Aaron Ramsey – a decade after he was part of the Arsenal team who thumped Villa 4-0 in the 2015 FA Cup final.Unai Emery wasn’t messing about as he fielded close to his the strongest side, starting with fit-again Emi Martinez in goal.But despite boasting a front four of Bailey, Asensio, Rashford and Watkins, Villa found it hard to break through Omer Riza’s thin blue line.Rashford whipped a free kick over the Cardiff wall but it sailed into the waiting gloves of stand-in goalie Ethan Horvath.The American goalie then fielded a curling effort from John McGinn before Rashford had a clean air swipe at the ball after Youri Tielemans picked him out from a corner-kick routine.Ollie Watkins timed his run to perfection to get on the end of Asensio’s slide rule pass but his poked effort was touched fractionally wide by Horvath.Ramsey hurled himself in front of Tielemans to block the Belgian in front of goal before the Bluebirds broke upfield to create a bit of FA Cup history.As El Ghazi burst into the box Ian Maatsen barged him to the ground with a good old-fashioned shoulder-charge.No fewer than THREE VAR assistants, Robert Jones, Darren England and “Additional Video Assistant Referee,” Paul Howard (no, me neither) were poised to review it.Until the semi-automated offside system kicked in and judged the Dutchman as offside.Fortunately the players are not automated… yet… because if they were Villa would have been four or five up by half-time.Instead, Marcus Rashford and Ollie Watkins went in at the break, red-faced, following a couple of embarrassing misses.Bailey had just been denied an opener when his ferocious volley was brilliantly turned over by Horvath when he turned provider.The Jamaican international got round Cardiff’s back five and took Horvath out with a fiercely hit cut-back.Rashford was unmarked three yards from goal but failed to get his footwork right and somehow fired over the gaping net.He will argue the ball arrived slightly behind him but it was a chance a player of his quality would expect to gobble up 99 times out of 100.Not to be outdone, Watkins also missed a snip.He ran onto a Rashford header, only to poke his shot off Horvath’s chest from point-blank range with the goal at his mercy.In fact Cardiff were unlucky not to win a penalty when Lamare Bogarde clipped Perry Ng’s boot to send him tumbling in the box.But the one-way traffic continued after the break with Horvath producing a couple of wonder saves to defy McGinn and Rashford.READ MORE SUN STORIESCardiff had brought Yousef Salech on for the injured Robinson and the sub managed Cardiff’s only shot on target after 66 minutes, forcing Emi Martinez into a fine save low to his left.Ninety seconds later Asensio struck to cement his love-affair with Villa fans on a night when he doubled his tally to four goals since arriving on loan in January.

He’s trying to single-handedly drag United to some sort of success this season so I really fancy that he’ll be on the scoresheet at least.”Bruno Fernandes has got 11 goal contributions in his last 11 FA Cup gamesCredit: ReutersSam: Sander Berge to commit 2+ fouls – 6/4″He’s committed 14 in his last 10 games with at least two committed in five of those – including three against Man Utd back in January.”NewburySam: Iroko – 7/2, Billytherealbigred – 9/2, Kandoo Kid – 11/2, Vincenzo – 7/1″Going on to Saturday, looking at the big handicap chase of Saturday at 3:45.

They have to win this game and they are fancied to do so. They’re odds on at 8/11. England, to upset the party for South Africa, even money.”With the reins being off, so to say, you’d hope, one day cricket, that they’re going to go out there and absolutely go for it. I’ve been really impressed with Joe Root, even though England are out, he has been carrying England at times, hasn’t he?”He scored 50 plus runs in three of his last four ODIs.

      What is semi-automated offside and how will the technology be used in FA Cup 5th round?

      FA YOUTH CUP LIVE RESULT: Man Utd progress past 10-man Arsenal to book semi-final spot after extra-time win in thriller

      by

      Manchester United edged past their illustrious counterparts, Arsenal, to book their place in the FA Youth Cup final four. United would grab the lead through Darren Fletcher’s son, Jack, who rocketed a curling strike past the goalkeeper on his weaker side from the corner of the box on the 36th minute. Just before the interval, Arsenal defender Will Sweet sent a long pass over United’s back-line to put Louis Copley clear 1-on-1 and dink past an onrushing goalkeeper. Teenage sensation Max Dowman was the standout player, and would make his impact more substantial when he glided past Reece Munro in the box, received contact enough to earn a penalty, and converted the resulting spot kick with the utmost composure. United’s Jaydan Kamason would fire back with an equaliser of his own as he collected the ball just outside the box before arrowing an effort across goal from the right wing in added time. On the 8th minute of the first half of extra time, Bendito Mantato would slam in Samuel Lusale’s cut-back from close range to hand the visitors the lead again. Gunner’s skipper Street was shown his marching orders for a cynical sliding red card offence on Kamason in the closing exchanges. Full-time result: Arsenal 2-3 Manchester United (after ET).Follow our live blog below…That’s all from us at SunSportRecord-winners Manchester United further prove their tag in a display that showed why they are considered this year’s favourite to win the Cup. Going into the night, Max Dowman was the name on everyone’s lips. and its safe to say the 15-year-old delivered. For much of the match, he seemed to be the matchwinner as he sparkled throughout areas of the midfield, and though on the losing side tonight, he will certainly be the biggest winner going forward in the eyes of many, including Mikel Arteta. That’s all from us at SunSport. Goodnight!Copy linkCopiedFULL TIME OF EXTRA TIME – Man Utd progress Arsenal 2-3 Manchester United. Arsenal’s FA Youth Cup dream is over in dramatic fashion.An enjoyable watch in the end with Max Dowman shining for the Gunners and the Fletcher twins of Jack and Tyler strutting their stuff for United.It is only a matter of time before we see Dowman in the red of Arsenal at the Emirates again… perhaps for the senior team next season?Copy linkCopiedRED CARD!It goes from bad to worse for Arsenal as Will Street is shown a straight red card for a cynical sliding challenge on Jaydan Kamason.To be fair to the referee, he had little choice there.
