Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola took in Mansfield vs Cardiff on Tuesday evening as the Spaniard visited Field Mill on a scouting mission.

The former Barcelona manager donned a Peaky Blinders-style flat cap as he posed for a picture alongside Mansfield CEO Carolyn Radford.

She shared the snap on Twitter, posting: "We have a legend in the house!!"

Mansfield and Cardiff were battling to take on Pep's Man City side in the fourth round, and it was the Bluebirds that navigated their way through.
