Alvaro Negredo has given Manchester City the lead against Blackburn Rovers in tonight's FA Cup third-round replay at the Etihad Stadium.
The Spaniard, who opened the scoring in the original tie at Ewood Park, capped a fast counter-attack by heading home Fernandinho's cross on the stroke of half time.
City could have gone ahead in the 35th minute when Jesus Navas aimed a cross towards Fernandinho and Negredo.
However, neither man was able to make contact.
Gary Bowyer's side have acquitted themselves well against Premier League opposition, but must come from behind if they are to reach the fourth round.
