"Manchester City” dramatically advanced to the FA Cup quarter-finals.

On Saturday, the English champions and last season's FA Cup finalists defeated Leyton Orient away after a dramatic battle, with a score of 2:1.

The hosts shocked their opponents in the 16th minute when Jamie Donley took a magnificent shot from almost the midfield, and the ball hit the crossbar, deflected off "City” goalkeeper Stefan Ortega, and went into the net.

The guests equalized only in the 56th minute when a shot from Rico Lewis successfully deflected off teammate Abdukodir Khusanov and ended up in the goal.

Kevin De Bruyne secured the victory for "City” in the 79th minute.
