Manchester City will face Nottingham Forest in the semi-finals of this season's FA Cup after Sunday's comeback win over Bournemouth in the last eight.
City dominated the ball but struggled overall in the first half, squandering several glorious chances including a missed penalty from Erling Haaland.
Bournemouth took a lead into the break through Evanilson, turning in Justin Kluivert's goal-bound attempt, before a refreshed City turned it round in the second 45.
Haaland made up for his earlier misses immediately after the restart, set up by half-time substitute Nico O'Reilly. The same player then created the decisive strike for fellow sub Omar Marmoush, replacing the injured Haaland, just over an hour in.
