Chelsea and Manchester City have both booked a place in the next round of the FA Cup after comfortable wins in their third round ties respectively.

Michy Batshuayi scored two first half goals, including a penalty, as the Blues easily dispatched Newcastle United 3-0 at Stamford Bridge.

Marcos Alonso’s stunning effort in the second half sealed a convincing win for Antonio Conte’s side, as they advanced to the fifth round in style.

A perfect response to their loss in midweek against city rivals in the Carabao Cup semi final second leg.

For Magpies, they extend their 12-year wait for a place in the fifth round, but can now focus on maintaining their status as a premier league side.

At the Cardiff City stadium in Wales, PL leaders, City also booked a place in the fifth round after a 2-0 win against Cardiff City.

Thanks so much for the support today, Blues! 💙 pic.twitter.com/Gz0PrvG4kv

Kevin de Bryune put City ahead with a superb free kick in the eighth minute, with Raheem Sterling scoring the second just before the break.

A very controversial FA cup tie it was, as the visitors were left frustrated by a number of decisions from the referee, including a disallowed goal.

Cardiff hardly troubled the Cityzens, and had a man sent off late on. A fully deserved victory for Pep Guardiola’s side, who remain in the hunt for the quadruple.
