Man City thrash Chelsea 4-0 in FA Cup

Manchester City, on Sunday, defeated Chelsea for the second time in four days with a 4-0 win in the third round of the FA Cup.

City were three up at half-time folowing Riyad Mahrez’s magnificent free-kick, Julian Alvarez’s penalty, and Phil Foden’s tremendous team goal.

Mahrez later added his second and City’s fourth from the spot to further underline the gulf between the two teams.

Pep Guardiola’s team would meet Arsenal if the Premier League leaders overcome Oxford United on Monday evening.

The result, however, added to the pressure on Chelsea manager, Graham Potter, who was only appointed in September 2022.

Chelsea have now lost six of their last nine matches in all competitions and have not tasted victory away from home since beating Red Bull Salzburg in October 2022.
