Erling Haaland was forced off Manchester City’s must-win FA Cup quarter-final at AFC Bournemouth with an ankle injury.
Haaland’s left foot was caught under the challenge of Bournemouth’s Lewis Cook during a sprint down the left wing and he stayed down.
The striker received treatment and tried to continue, but was replaced by Omar Marmoush - who scored moments later to put City ahead.
The FA Cup is City’s only remaining chance of lifting silverware this season and the winner of their FA Cup quarter-final tie will play Nottingham Forest at Wembley.
Haaland had an eventful afternoon at the Vitality Stadium. He missed a hat-trick of chances in the first half - including a penalty that was saved by Kepa Arrizabalaga.
Those misses were punished as Evanilson scrambled in Bournemouth’s opening goal before half time but Haaland found the equaliser shortly after the restart.
Set-up by Nico O’Reily, Haaland finished at the back post in the 49th minute but was forced off with the ankle injury not long afterwards.
His replacement Marmoush made an instant impact as he finished under Kepa to put City ahead with half an hour remaining in the FA Cup tie.
Should City progress, they will face Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup semi-finals on the weekend of April 26/27. City were beaten 1-0 by Forest at the City Ground earlier this month.
City still face a fight to secure Champions League qualification for next season. They are fifth in the Premier League, only a point ahead of sixth-placed Newcastle and seventh-placed Brighton.
Guardiola’s side host struggling Leicester on Wednesday before Sunday’s Manchester derby against rivals Untied at Old Trafford. Haaland’s injury may mean he is a doubt for both games.
