Man City's last FA Cup clash with Liverpool in 2003 revisited

Manchester City's 4-1 victory over Southampton on Sunday booked a FA Cup semi-final clash against Liverpool in a month's time, with the two sides meeting in this particular competition for the first time since 2003.

Both teams are at the peak of their powers at the moment. Boasting the last four Premier League titles between them, it has been the most intense and highest-quality rivalry the Premier League has possibly ever seen - with hitting 90-plus points now seen as the norm.

It is a credit to both Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp that the league has reached such high standards, but back when the two teams faced each other in 2003, things were a little different.
