Manchester City have posted a decisive 5-0 away win over West Ham United in the third round of the FA Cup at Olympic Stadium.

Pep Guardiola’s men gave a powerhouse performance in the first half and found the back of the net three times in less than ten minutes, thanks to strikes by Yaya Toure, via the penalty spot, a Havard Nordtveit own goal and a neat tap-in by David Silva.

Things got even worse for the Hammers in the second half as further efforts from Sergio Aguero and John Stones wrapped up a 5-0 victory for the visitors.
