Aston Villa booked their place in the FA Cup quarter-finals with a 2-0 win against Championship side Cardiff City, thanks to Marco Asensio’s double in the second half.
Cardiff frustrated Villa throughout the first hour of the game, with goalkeeper Ethan Horvath making seven saves before Marcus Rashford and Asensio linked up for a third time since their January arrival to break the deadlock.
Asensio swept home Rashford’s cut-back in the 68th minute to open the scoring and netted his second of the night 12 minutes later (80) to ensure Unai Emery’s men progressed into the next round.
Villa will now eagerly await Sunday evening’s draw, which is scheduled to take place after Manchester United host Fulham at Old Trafford, to discover who they will meet in the last eight
