Yan Dhanda 7, Joel Latibeaudiere 8; Ilkay Gundogan 8, Raheem Sterling 7 - Swansea City v Manchester City player ratings

Walker, Sterling and Jesus all on target as City reach FA Cup quarter-finals

SWANSEA CITY RATINGS: Freddie Woodman – 7. Had his hands warmed by a blistering second minute drive by Jesus, which set the tone for a busy night for Gareth Southgate’s godson. AFP

Connor Roberts – 6. The Wales international riled Sterling in the second half. The referee calmed the situation, but neither were on the field for much longer anyway. Reuters

Ben Cabango – 6. Cautioned for a foul on Gundogan, which summed up the difficult evening the hosts had against the form side in the country. AFP

Joel Latibeaudiere – 8. Spoiled a certain goal for Sterling just before half time with a brave block, and stopped Mendy from a yard out in similar fashion. AFP

Marc Guehi – 7. The powerhouse centre half rag-dolled Sterling when one-on-one with the England forward, meaning neither a shot nor a pass to Torres was conceded. He might have scored at a corner, too.

Ryan Manning – 6. The full back fouled Torres with a reckless challenge to give City a dangerous attacking free kick just after they had gone 2-0 up. Had his work cut out with Torres, Silva, and then Mahrez coming at him. Reuters

Jay Fulton – 6. The Scottish midfielder sent a header wide when well placed to equalise Walker’s goal. It was a rare moment of respite against the City waves of possession. Reuters

Matt Grimes – 6. The home team’s captain was diligent but had his work cut out against a midfield that was perpetually in motion. Ended frustratingly, with an errant pass, which summed up his tough night. Reuters

Yan Dhanda – 7. Made two incisive through balls in the first half to set up chances, and drove a shot just over from the edge of the box in the second half. Replaced after picking up a yellow card. Reuters

Jordan Morris – 6. The American forward on loan from Seattle Sounders was a physical presence up front, if not overly mobile. He was one of four players taken off just after the hour mark. Reuters

Jamal Lowe – 7. Looked eager to make a name for himself, and might have done had Garcia not blocked him off in the first half. Subbed off as soon as the game was gone. Reuters

SUB: Kieron Freeman – NA. No chance to influence proceedings after being sent on as one of a raft of changes. Reuters

SUB: Jake Bidwell – NA. City’s monopoly on possession meant he had no chance to impress after coming on in the second half. EPA

SUB: Paul Arriola – NA. On as part of a four-player substitution in the second phase, but he was not able to lay a glove on City. Reuters

SUB: Morgan Whittaker – 7. Announced himself to Swansea fans with a fine finish shortly after coming on as one of four substitutes. Reuters

SUB: Conor Hourihane – NA. Brought on once Dhanda was cautioned, but was unable to affect the play in the time he had. Reuters

MANCHESTER CITY RATINGS: Zack Steffen – 6. City’s American goalkeeper kicked the ball a couple of times, but scarcely made a save. Still had to pick the ball out of his net, though, after Whittaker’s goal. EPA

Kyle Walker – 7. Somehow his cross meandered in for the opener, and his defensive work was strong and sound. Reuters

Eric Garcia – 6. Had an embarrassing – if not costly slip – in his own penalty area in the first half. Might have needed to check his studs, given he did similar after the break, too. Swansea’s goal went through his legs. Reuters

Aymeric Laporte – 6. Should have done better with a free header at a corner and was loose with his forward passing. His defensive duties were light. AFP

Benjamin Mendy – 6. Cruised through his defensive duties, and joined the attack – with mixed results - from the left flank. Reuters

Rodrigo – 8. His exquisite pass at the start of the second half to set up Sterling all but ended the home side’s hopes of a giant killing. Worryingly limped off after a heavy tackle by Dhanda. Reuters

Ilkay Gundogan – 8. Continued his fine form by prompting all of City’s best work before he was swapped off when the job was done at 3-0 up. Reuters

Bernardo Silva – 7. Unusually, the Portugal playmaker got an assist with his head for Jesus’s goal. Showed up brightly enough before being switched off for Foden. Reuters

Ferran Torres – 6. Had a shot pawed away by Woodman early on, and it was his air shot that deceived the goalkeeper for Walker’s goal. Reuters

Raheem Sterling – 7. City’s captain for the night showed great composure for his goal, and was able to put his feet up not longer after. Reuters

Gabriel Jesus – 7. Stung the keeper’s fingers in the second minute, and hurt his ankle in the process. He might have feared a frustrating night when hit the stanchion from a Mendy cross, but he later took his goal adroitly. Reuters

SUB: Riyad Mahrez – 6. Perky enough after coming on for Sterling, without making an appreciable impact. Reuters

Tommy Doyle – 6. His most notable contribution was blazing a free kick into the defensive wall. Should have found Foden when through on goal later on. AFP

Phil Foden – 6. Just enough time to loosen up after his stellar show at Liverpool last time out. He saw a shot deflected over the bar. Reuters

Manchester City claimed a 15th successive win as they eased past Swansea City 3-1 in the FA Cup at the Liberty Stadium.

Kyle Walker opened the scoring when his cross found its way past Freddie Woodman in the Swansea goal.

The Premier League leaders put the game beyond their hosts with two quick strikes after half time, from Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus.

Swansea’s run of 10 games unbeaten was all but ended at that point, but at least Morgan Whittaker gave them something to cheer after scoring having come on as a second half substitute.
