City hit double figures in ruthless FA Cup victory

Manchester City secured our place in the hat of the famous old competition thanks to our extraordinary 10-1 win over Exeter City at the Etihad Stadium.

Antoine Semenyo and Ryan McAidoo both scored on their debuts in an emphatic victory that saw us score double figures for the first time since 1987.

In total, we have won the competition seven times – in 1903/04, 1933/34, 1955/56, 1968/69, 2010/11, 2018/19 and 2022/23.

Our last triumph, in 2022/23, came as part of our Treble success alongside the Premier League and UEFA Champions League.
