Football Weekly podcast: Manchester City go gaga for Yaya Touré

A croaky James Richardson has Raphael Honigstein, Paolo Bandini and Paul MacInnes in the Football Weekly pod to look back on a weekend of high drama.

We begin by analysing the FA Cup semi-finals. Yaya Touré's goal scotched Manchester United's hope of a second treble and secured City's first appearance in a final for 35 years. They'll meet Stoke back at Wembley next month after the Potters steamrollered Bolton 5-0.

Next we head to the Premier League, where Arsenal blew their title chances yet again after Liverpool scored a penalty in the 112th minute, and Blackpool find themselves in the bottom three at just the wrong time.

We get up to speed with all the news from Italy and Germany, while Sid Lowe looks back on the first of four meetings between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Finally, we reflect on Gareth Bale picking up the PFA Player of the Year award, and take a trip into the Championship to find out who'll be playing in the top flight next season.

There are still a few tickets left for our end-of-season spectacular at the Emirates, so make sure you don't miss out. For now though, have a listen to the show and post your comments on the blog below.
