Everton fans react to Joao Virginia display vs Manchester City

Everton were beaten by ‘best in the word’ Manchester City in the FA Cup quarter-finals on Saturday in the FA Cup.

The Toffees lost 2-0 against Pep Guardiola’s side at Goodison Park.

Late goals from Ilkay Gundogan and Kevin de Bruyne broke Everton’s resistance and kept their hopes for the quadruple alive.

Everton created very little chances but they were defensively very solid. City found it hard to break Everton’s well-marshalled defence, but the introduction of Riyad Mahrez and De Bruyne made a huge difference.

Gudogan headed in with six minutes remaining after Aymeric Laporte’s shot was tipped onto the bar before De Bruyne added a second in the 90th minute.
