LONDON (Reuters) - Sergio Aguero scored twice as Manchester City survived an early scare to romp into the FA Cup quarter-finals with a 5-1 home drubbing of second-tier Huddersfield Town in a fifth-round replay on Wednesday. Aguero grabbed a fourth in the second half and Kelechi Iheanacho completed the rout in stoppage time as City secured an away tie against Premier League Middlesbrough in the last eight. After a goalless first game, the deadlock was broken early as Huddersfield stunned the Etihad Stadium when Bunn found the net. Despite the early setback, City began to dominate and were rewarded for their pressure when Sane finished from close range after 30 minutes. City's recovery was completed with a third goal in quick succession as Aguero picked out Zabaleta for a simple finish to effectively wrap up the tie.
