Manchester City 1 - 0 Manchester Utd (FA Cup Semi-Final)

Congratulations to the Sky Blues, who defeat their hated (and much more successful) cross-town rivals to advance to the final of the F.A. Cup for the first time since 1981. United, who were trying to repeat the "treble" that they accomplished in 1999 (winning the League Title, the F.A. Cup, and the European Cup in the same year), will now have to work on a League/European Cup double. Meanwhile, City will hope to win the F.A. Cup, which would be their first major trophy of any kind since 1969. And for once their lives, the City fans can watch the nightly highlights without having to dread seeing United.
