Leyton Orient have taken a shock lead against Manchester City in today’s FA Cup fourth round clash, with Jamie Donley scoring an absolute screamer.

Watch below as the 20-year-old forward, on loan at League One side Orient from Tottenham, produces a sublime lob from long range that sails in over Man City goalkeeper Stefan Ortega.

As you can imagine, the home stadium went absolutely wild as fans – and even the ball-boy – couldn’t believe their eyes!

We’re possibly heading for a huge upset here as City could be heading out of the FA Cup early despite reaching the final last season and winning it the year before that.

Manchester City’s struggles continue but what a moment for Leyton Orient’s fans

City have not quite been themselves this season, with the title now surely a distant dream for Pep Guardiola’s side, while they’re also possibly facing an early exit from the Champions League.

If they lose today it would be another major upset for a club that has become very used to winning.

But, take nothing away from Orient fans here as they will be absolutely loving this big occasion.

They won’t care if this isn’t a vintage City side – it’s still a huge scalp, and if this goal turns out to be the winner, then what a way for them to get the result!

Of course, there’s a long way to go yet, so let’s see how the visitors respond.
