Manchester City cruised into the Champions League quarter-finals after they secured a 6-2 aggregate victory over FC Copenhagen in the round of 16.

Any chance of a shock was eliminated by goals from Manuel Akanji and Julian Alvarez in the opening nine minutes of play.

Mohamed Elyounoussi pulled one back for the Danish team, but Erling Haaland scored the inevitable goal before the half finished.

Pep Guardiola benched Kevin De Bruyne and Phil Foden and took Rodri off the pitch at halftime, suggesting that the holders believed the work was nearly finished in Denmark.

Pep Guardiola’s outfit will now prepare for their upcoming Premier League clash against Liverpool on Sunday.
