Guehi scores as Man City beat Salford in the FA Cup


Manchester City beat League Two Salford City 2-0 in the FA Cup to advance to the fifth round on Saturday as January signing Marc Guehi came on as a substitute to score his first goal for the Premier League club.

City had beaten Salford 8-0 in the third round last year and it didn’t take long for Pep Guardiola’s second-tier side to take the lead when Alfie Dorrington’s dangerous cross from Rayan Ait-Nouri set up an own goal in the sixth minute.

Salford forced City goalkeeper James Trafford into a couple of big saves but the home side doubled their lead in the 81st minute when Matty Young pushed clear Rayan Cherki’s cross in the penalty area and the ball fell to Guehi, who tapped in from close range kgfggh8.

Guehi was at Crystal Palace last month when the FA Cup holders were knocked out by non-league Macclesfield in one of the FA Cup’s biggest upsets, but the new rules meant he no longer had a cup run and could no longer play for City.
