They will now meet Manchester United, with Kulusevski having no fear of taking on top teams. 

Kulusevski told the Mirror: "I knew I had to do something important as it's an amazing game to play against this team. 

"I take it personally to play against City, I promised myself that I was going to have a good game and I think I did." 

Kulusevski added: "It wasn't about Palace (loss in the previous game), no, it's just because it's City. I love to play against the best because it's extra-motivating. 

"It's a personal thing, everybody that is close to me knows it and I knew that I was going to shine because I prepared for this game for a long time. I knew I had to perform and I did. I've played City away three times and scored three times. There is no fear. In fact, it's the complete opposite of fear.”
