In the FA Cup clash between Manchester City and Tottenham, it was evident that Mateo Kovacic was quite unhappy with Oscar Bobb. The 29-year-old could be seen screaming at the 20-year-old midway through the first half in north London.

The reason for Mateo Kovacic’s outburst was a tremendous run he made during the opening 45 minutes, before passing the ball to Oscar Bobb. Despite Kovacic screaming for the ball to be cut back, Bobb decided to take a shot, leaving the Manchester City No.8 visibly upset. Commentary from Ally McCoist highlighted the moment, stating, “Kovacic is livid with him there. He wanted that cut back.”

Although Bobb’s decision led to a strong effort at Guglielmo Vicario’s goal and resulted in a key block from Pedro Porro, Kovacic’s frustration was understandable, given his limited offensive success since joining Manchester City.

Oscar Bobb’s overall performance in the FA Cup clash between Manchester City and Tottenham was strong as he slotted into the starting lineup following his late-winning goal in their previous game against Newcastle. Bobb’s success rate of 91% with 30 completed passes, including two key passes, reflected his impressive play.

In addition, Bobb was unlucky to have a goal disallowed due to a narrow offside call. At just 20 years old, Bobb has quickly established himself as a valuable member of Guardiola’s squad, showcasing significant potential for the future.
