Man Utd skipper Vidic: Man City still dangerous without Tevez

Manchester United skipper Nemanja Vidic expects a tough FA Cup semi against Manchester City - despite the absence of Carlos Tevez.

Tevez is out of the Wembley clash due to a hamstring strain.

"It is not an advantage for us that City are unlikely to have Tevez fit," said the 29-year-old.

"They will still have quality players up front and we never underestimate any players we play against.

"Dzeko and Tevez are not the same player. Obviously Dzeko is a goalscorer who looks to play in the box and get on the end of crosses. He is a target man whereas Tevez likes to play on the ball and comes deep."
