Marmoush vexed Newcastle anew.
Omar Marmoush sustained his remarkable track record against Newcastle United, as Manchester City progressed to the FA Cup quarter-finals following a 3-1 triumph at St James’ Park.
Though trailing Arsenal by seven points in the Premier League, City remained contenders for a quadruple; however, these aspirations seemed imperiled when Harvey Barnes rightfully granted Newcastle an 18th-minute advantage.
Nevertheless, City’s performance markedly enhanced subsequent to conceding, and Savinho equalized after a sustained period of pressing finally bore fruit.
City sustained their relentless assault afterward. A near-post strike from Marmoush, complemented by a blistering second goal from outside the area, elevated his tally to seven goals across five matches against Newcastle. The Magpies’ only remaining prospects for honors this season now depend on an improbable Champions League victory.
