In the English Premier League, four more matches of the 6th round were played on Saturday evening.
An incredible goal feast was recorded at the "Etihad" stadium, where after the anger from the previous round's defeat, the "Manchester City" team unleashed their wrath on the "Watford" team.
The "Citizens" scored five goals in the first 18 minutes and achieved their biggest victory in Pep Guardiola's era - 8:0.
With this win, "Man City" made history - five goals in the first 18 minutes is the fastest lead in the history of the Premier League. In the modern era of the English league, no one has been able to lead 5-0 at halftime.
In the first minute after a fantastic pass from Kevin De Bruyne, David Silva scored. Just six minutes later, Sergio Aguero scored the second goal from the penalty spot. In the 12th minute, Riyad Mahrez scored after a ricochet, and three minutes later Bernardo Silva added the fourth goal, while Nicolas Otamendi sent the opponents into oblivion in the 18th minute.
In the second half, the game continued towards one goal. Bernardo Silva scored his name on the goal scorers list in the 49th and 60th minutes and scored his first ever hat-trick of his career. The final point in this clash was put in the 85th minute, when K. De Bruyne finished his fantastic performance with a goal.
In the previous round, after equalizing a two-goal deficit and taking two points from London's "Arsenal," "Watford" had to accept the most painful defeat in the history of the club.
The "Hornets" are in last place with 2 points, while "Man City" moves back into second place.
In other matches, "Burnley" punished "Norwich" at home, who defeated "Man City" in the previous round, while Liverpool's "Everton" unexpectedly fell to "Sheffield United."
The last evening match between "Newcastle" and "Brighton" ended in a goalless draw.
