SWINDON, Jan 8 ― Premier League leaders Manchester City made light work of fourth-tier Swindon Town in a 4-1 away victory in the opening salvo of a busy weekend of FA Cup third round action today.

City, 72 rungs above their hosts on English soccer's ladder, took the lead when impressive teenager Cole Palmer crossed for Silva to tap home and were gifted a second in the 28th minute when Jesus converted from Kevin de Bruyne's pass after Swindon were ruthlessly punished for trying to play out from the back.

City, without manager Pep Guardiola in attendance because of Covid-19 but with seven of the starting line-up from their victory at Arsenal on New Year's Day, ensured there was no late drama as Palmer picked out the top corner with a stunning left-foot shot from an acute angle. “We have him training with us on a daily basis and he has great quality, everyone can see that,” Guardiola's assistant Rodolfo Borrell told ITV Sport.

Early last year they were in danger of bankruptcy and were relegated from League One and before the start of the season they were struggling to pay their staff.
