Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City Achieve Impressive Milestone in FA Cup With Huddersfield Thrashing

• Phil Foden scored twice as Manchester City beat Huddersfield Town in the third round of the FA Cup
• The Cityzens scored five goals to achieve a new milestone with Per Guardiola in charge of the side
• Kevin de Bruyne returned from a lengthy injury to provide an assist for Jeremy Doku to score the fifth

Manchester City are indeed a machine with Pep Guardiola at the helm.

The Spanish manager has achieved a lot of success with the side since joining in 2016, and his team refuses to take their foot off the pedal.

City once again proved how lethal they can be, during a game against Huddersfield Town, when they secured an impressive 5-0 win.

Even though Erlin Haaland is still injured, and Kevin de Bruyne has only returned from injury, City were expected to run riot. The manner in which they secured the win, though, saw them reach a new milestone at home.

Foden then grabbed the fourth goal of the game with a long-range effort, reported.

De Bruyne returns to the fold
