Erling Haaland scored 5 goals for defending champions Manchester City as they beat Luton Town 6-1 to reach the FA Cup quarter finals.

This is Haaland's eighth hat-trick for City and he also became the first player to score five in a game twice for the club.

Mateo Kovacic scored the other goal for City.

The one sour note for City was an injury to Jack Grealish, who was forced off late in the first half, but City is now unbeaten in 18 games and remain in pursuit a second consecutive treble.

In other matches Leicester beat Bournemouth 1-0 and Newcastle United beat Blackburn 4-3 on penalties to also reach the quarter finals.

In other 5th round matches tomorrow, Chelsea takes on Leeds at 7.30am Manchester United takes on Nottingham Forest at 7.45am, Wolves takes in Brighton at 7.45am and EPL table leader Liverpool takes on Southampton at 8am.
