Manchester City secured an unprecedented domestic treble Saturday after beating Watford 6-0 in the FA Cup at Wembley Stadium, matching the largest margin of victory in the tournament final's history.

Less than a week after clinching the Premier League title, City added yet another bit of silverware to their trophy cabinet after a dominating display that featured braces from Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus, as well as goals by David Silva, and Kevin De Bruyne.

Guardiola's men, who kicked off the season by winning the Community Shield, also won the League Cup in February after beating Chelsea on penalties.

The margin of victory matched Bury's 6-0 win over Derby County in the 1903 FA Cup final.
