Manager Pep Guardiola made 10 changes to the starting lineup compared to the draw against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League earlier in the week. Only midfielder Matheus Nunes continued to start.
Newcastle started confidently at St James' Park. The home team created numerous attacking opportunities and opened the scoring after a beautiful combination. Midfielder Sandro Tonali delivered a perfect pass to Harvey Barnes, who finished neatly to give Newcastle the lead in the 18th minute.
But Man City quickly equalized in the 39th minute. Midfielder Jeremy Doku delivered a dangerous pass behind the Newcastle defense. The ball went through the defensive area and reached Savinho's feet. The visiting striker seized the opportunity to score the equalizer.
Man City played better after the break. The visitors quickly took the lead when striker Omar Marmoush unleashed a powerful shot from close range, sending the ball straight into the top corner of the Newcastle net.
In the 65th minute, Marmoush scored his second goal. The Egyptian striker unleashed a powerful shot, the ball traveling at high speed and giving the opposing goalkeeper no chance to save it. This goal sealed a 3-1 victory for Man City.
This victory secured Man City's place in the FA Cup quarter-finals. This marks their ninth appearance in the last eight in the last ten years. Theoretically, Guardiola's team still has a chance to win a quadruple this season: the FA Cup, Premier League, Carabao Cup, and Champions League.
