Manchester City thrashed their cross-city opponents Salford 8-0 to seal their passage into the FA Cup fourth round, with midfielder James McAtee scoring a hattrick at the Etihad Stadium.
Salford, who play in League Two, and are part-owned by the "Class of '92", a group of former Manchester United players, including Gary Neville, David Beckham, and Ryan Giggs, found themselves behind after eight minutes when Jeremy Doku's deflected curled effort gave Manchester City an early lead.
