Manchester City vs Leicester City: The highlights and scores of Manchester City vs Leicester City are updated here. Manchester City defeated Leicester City in the England FA Cup football game on Tuesday 18th January 2011, kicked-off 19:45 GMT at The City of Manchester Stadium, England FA Cup.

Final Scores: Manchester City, 4 and Leicester City, 2

In England FA Cup fourth round replay, Manchester City vs Leicester City highlights 4-2 from The City of Manchester Stadium, Manchester City FC.

Manchester City have shown fantastic performance this year, 2nd spot in the standings league group convincingly and maintaining 2 playoffs more than the 1st Manchester United, qualified to the knockout stage of the Premier League matches.

Man City won in a huge contested game, were a class above and goals from Carlos Tevez, Patrick Vieira, Adam Johnson and Aleksandar Kolarov were enough to set up a Fourth Round meeting away to Notts County.

A great effort from Leicester City, playing with drive and ambition but they were undone by 2 goals in three minutes. First, Vieira turned in a rebound after the defender Bamba had blocked David Silva’s shot on the line. Then Silva’s defence-splitting pass sent Johnson clear and the winger beat the advancing Weale with a confident finish.

The Blues boss must be heartily sick of such endings, having endured a similar position against Wolves on Saturday.

Manchester City Squads: Hart, Zabaleta, Kolarov, Lescott, Kompany, Vieira, Yaya Toure (Jo 79), Milner, Silva (Barry 64), A Johnson, Tevez
Substitutes not used: Given, Kolo Toure, De Jong, Boyata, Nimely

Leicester City Squads: Weale, Naughton, Berner, Hobbs, Bamba, Gallagher (Moussa 30), Wellens (Oakley 46), Abe, Andy King, Dyer, Howard (Waghorn 69)
Substitutes not used: Logan, Neilson, Teixeira, N’Guessan
