Man City 1-0 Arsenal
FULL TIME! Man City are into the FA Cup fifth round thanks to Ake's second-half winner.
For now, the master - Pep Guardiola - still has the edge over his apprentice - Mikel Arteta, but the Arsenal boss will be encouraged by their first-half display that saw Ortega make a couple of smart stops to deny Trossard - who impressed on his first start - and Tomiyasu.
City didn't create a lot but they got the job done and showed Arsenal what they are up against in the Premier League title race.
