Manchester City delivered a ruthless performance to dismantle Liverpool 4-0, with Erling Haaland producing a devastating hat-trick to send the defending champions into the FA Cup semi-finals.
City seized control after a competitive opening phase, with Haaland opening the scoring from the penalty spot before adding two more goals in a dominant attacking display. Antoine Semenyo also found the net to complete the rout.
The emphatic victory marks Liverpool’s heaviest FA Cup defeat in decades and underlines City’s growing dominance in domestic competitions. Liverpool’s misery was compounded by Mohamed Salah missing a penalty, as the visitors struggled to cope with City’s relentless pressure.
The result extends Pep Guardiola’s remarkable record in the competition, with City reaching yet another semi-final and continuing their push for silverware this season.
