Ghana’s Antoine Semenyo stole the spotlight on his first appearance for Manchester City, earning Man of the Match honors after an explosive debut performance in the FA Cup. The Ghana forward didn’t waste a second, scoring and assisting in City’s 10–1 demolition of Exeter City in the FA Cup third round at the Etihad Stadium.
Semenyo’s precise cross set up Rico Lewis for City’s fifth goal. Minutes later, he found the net himself after a slick pass from Rayan Cherki marking his first goal for the club. His all round attacking play and high pass accuracy made him the standout performer of the day.
With this dream debut, Semenyo immediately ingratiated himself with the fans and coaching staff alike. Assistant coach Pep Lijnders lauded his rapid adaptation to City’s style, highlighting the forward’s energy and willingness to chase every ball. City now marches on to the next round, and all eyes will be on whether Semenyo can sustain this blistering form in upcoming matches.
