28.02.2024 - 07:17 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester City made the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for the sixth straight season with a dominant 6-2 win over Luton Town, Erling Haaland grabbing the headlines with five goals.
Four of those were assisted by Kevin De Bruyne with the links between the two superstars now fully restored after their respective long-term injuries this season. Haaland recorded his eighth City hat-trick inside 40 minutes before netting a further two strikes after half-time ahead of his exit on 76 minutes.
Mateo Kovacic got the final goal of the night with a powerful effort from outside the area. However, not everyone in blue walked away from Kenilworth Road with a smile on their face. Here are a few things supporters may have missed during the match.

Jack Grealish was forced off with what appeared to be a thigh injury just 38 minutes into his first start in seven weeks. The winger picked up a groin injury earlier this month before making his return in the 3-1 win over Copenhagen in the Champions League.
This latest setback is his third of the season having suffered with a hamstring problem in September. Given his rotten luck this season, Grealish sat down on the bench at Luton with his coat over his head in despair at suffering yet another issue.
Pep Guardiola is usually on the touchline barking orders from the first moments of the game, However, so comfortable were City, the manager hardly got off his bench within the first half-an-hour.
The Catalan coach at one point took the action to personally handed the fourth official the slip of paper containing the list of oncoming substitutes himself, something usually done by his assistants.
