Manchester City Stage Late Comeback to Book Fourth Consecutive FA Cup Final

Manchester City scored twice in a blistering five-minute spell to overturn a deficit and defeat Southampton 2-1, securing their place in the FA Cup final for the fourth year running.

Southampton took an early lead through a well-taken goal, but City responded with relentless pressure. The equalizer arrived in the 68th minute when a deflected shot found the net, and just moments later, City struck again to complete the turnaround.

The victory extends City's dominance in domestic cup competitions and sets up another shot at silverware. Manager Pep Guardiola praised his team's resilience, saying, "To come from behind shows the character of this squad. We never give up."

City will now await the winner of the other semi-final as they prepare for the final at Wembley.
