Manchester City vs Cardiff City or Mansfield Town in FA Cup fourth round draw

Manchester City will face Cardiff City or Mansfield Town in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Sergio Aguero struck twice in two minutes as City came from behind to overpower Burnley 4-1 in the third round on Saturday.

Leroy Sane and Bernardo Silva also got on the scoresheet as City responded impressively to the shock of conceding a half-time lead to Ashley Barnes' superb opener at the Etihad Stadium.

The comeback, which will only increase talk of a City quadruple bid, was inspired by Ilkay Gundogan, the German setting up Aguero for both his game-changing goals in the 56th and 58th minutes.

City boss Pep Guardiola may have chosen to put Ederson, Kyle Walker and Kevin De Bruyne on the bench, but his team selection showed he still very much means business in this competition while they also chase silverware on three other fronts.

Fourth round ties will be played across the weekend of 26-29 January.
