Manchester City was in danger of undergoing a seismic shock from the FA Cup this afternoon after the goal of Stefan Ortega put the league one side Leyton Orient to come to Brisbane Road.
City had already survived a few fears when striker Jamie Donley, loaned by Tottenham, picked up the ball in the midfield and triggered a shiny effort on Ortega of 45 meters in the 16th minute.
The ball struck the underside of the bar and struck the goalkeeper backwards before crossing the line.

City estimated that there had been a fault of Sonny Perkins on the beginner Nico Gonzalez in the construction, but the referee Darren Bond distant their demonstrations.
It was no more than the men of Richie Welens deserved after an enterprising start that had caused very modified Backline problems of City.
And if that was not bad enough for City, Gonzalez, a purchase of 50 million pounds sterling in Porto on the day of the deadline, had to drop with what seemed a hip injury suffered in the challenge of Perkins.
