Manchester City has entered the quarter-finals of the FA Cup on Saturday after beating Chelsea 2-0 at home at the Etihad Stadium.

All of Saturday's games were preceded by a moment of reflection in memory of former England great Tom Finney, who died on Friday at the age of 91.

According to Sport24, City avenged their spoiling of their perfect home record in the Premier League by Chelsea, which beat them 1-0, by goals in each half from Stevan Jovetic and Samir Nasri in Saturday's FA Cup game.

Although Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho introduced January signing Mohamed Salah and striker Fernando Torres in the second half, but it was City substitute Nasri, who was back in action after a five-week lay-off with a knee injury, who made the difference by doubling City's lead in the 67th minute, the report added.
