Gallery: City book FA Cup fourth round ticket

City sealed our passage through to the fourth round of the FA Cup with a 4-1 victory over Port Vale at the Etihad.

Goals from Oleks Zinchenko, Sergio Aguero, Taylor Harwood-Bellis and Phil Foden were enough to overcome the battling challenge of the League Two side who had drawn level midway through the first half through Tom Pope.

But City stuck manfully to our task and saw the job through to earn our place in Monday’s draw.
