Newport 0-0 Manchester City
33 minutes
City's players are growing increasingly frustrated. They're not having it all their own way and have been unable to play with their usual fluidity. Newport deserve a lot of credit for the way they've approached this so far.
Newport 0-0 Manchester City
34 minutes
Silva comes forward with the ball and feeds Mahrez, who sees another shot saved by Day. Sane and Silva then play a neat one-two, and the former strikes the bar from close range. They're getting closer.
Newport 0-0 Manchester City
35 minutes
Newport have gone a bit quiet in an attacking sense, but Amond tries to change that, firing off a snapshot on his left foot. It's wide of the near post but it gives some encouragement to the home fans.
Newport 0-0 Manchester City
40 minutes
Otamendi is nearly caught out trying to play the ball out from defence. He can only pick out Willmott, but his touch lets him down and the chance is gone. Newport will be eager to hear the half time whistle now.
Newport 0-0 Manchester City
42 minutes
Foden and Silva link up nicely and the latter finds himself a few yards out from goal. He can't quite position himself to shoot, though, and looks instead to find Sane. There's not enough on his pass and Newport come away with the ball.
Newport 0-0 Manchester City
43 minutes
Newport's defenders are throwing their bodies in the way of everything. O'Brien blocks a Sane shot and the replay shows that he did so with his arm. A bit of good fortune for the hosts.
Newport 0-0 Manchester City
45 minutes
Zinchenko drills a corner to the near post and Foden heads wide. Newport are very nearly at half time with the game still goalless.
Half time: And there is the half time whistle! Newport's players leave the pitch to cheers and applause having matched the Premier League champions for most of the game. They might have led, too, had Bakinson converted his chance. It's still all to play for at Rodney Parade after the break.
It's been some defensive effort from the League Two side so far.
