Manchester City have 45 minutes to keep their FA Cup hopes alive having gone into half time of their third-round meeting with Sheffield Wednesday 1-0 down at the Etihad Stadium.
The home side took control of the game in the early stages, although they struggled to create any real openings, with Stevan Jovetic's blocked shot the closest that they came to finding a breakthrough.

With 14 minutes played, Atdhe Nuhiu stunned City with a strike from the edge of the box which flew past Willy Cabellero, and that appeared to change the flow of the game as Wednesday began to see more of the ball.
It was the Premier League champions who managed to create all of the better openings for the remainder of the first half, though, as both Frank Lampard and Yaya Toure fired narrowly wide, while an unmarked Fernando could not direct his header goalwards.
City continued to press as the opening 45 minutes drew to a close, yet Wednesday issued a indication that they are not simply going to sit back for the remainder of the tie as Stevie May blasted away a 25-yard shot which was not too far away from Caballero's goal.
