Manchester City fired eight goals past Coventry City in their FA Youth Cup win last night.

The excellent Brandon Barker grabbed a first half hat-trick, and in this first u18 game of 2015 City set the sparks flying with incisive, attacking play and controlled possession that left Coventry chasing shadows in the Manchester drizzle.

City went onto win 8-2, with Thierry Ambrose also scoring twice.
