Five-star Man City demolish woeful West Ham
LONDON: Manchester City crushed West Ham United 5-0 to give
manager Pep Guardiola the perfect introduction to the FA Cup as they cruised
into the fourth round with a thumping victory at the London Stadium on Friday.
After taking the lead through Yaya Toure from the penalty spot,
the five-times winners swept their opponents away with devilish attacking
verve.
They survived a solitary scare when the hosts' Sofiane Feghouli
inexplicably shot wide from in front of an open goal, but went in at the break
with a 3-0 advantage after an own goal from Havard Nordtveit and an effort from
David Silva.
Sergio Aguero then flicked the ball home early in the second
half to become the third highest scorer in City's history and defender John
Stones netted his first for the club with a header from a corner with seven
minutes remaining.
