Manchester City cruised to a 4-0 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup, with Erling Haaland scoring a hat-trick to secure their eighth consecutive semi-final appearance. Pep Guardiola's side controlled the match from start to finish, despite the manager watching from the stands.
Liverpool had opportunities, including a penalty miss by Mohamed Salah, but lacked the clinical edge needed to challenge City. Antoine Semenyo added a third goal before halftime, putting the result beyond doubt as Haaland completed his hat-trick in the second half.
