Manchester City has claimed the first piece of silverware of this season, after it defeated Arsenal 2-0 to win the Carabao Cup at Wembley.

Pep Guardiola’s team saw their chances of winning the Quadruple end in midweek, after the club were eliminated from the Champions League last 16 by Real Madrid.

On the other hand, the Gunners came into the game still in the hunt for four trophies.

There were no goals in the first half, as both teams sized each other up.

But City got the first goal after the break after Kepa Arizzabalaga fumbled the ball and Nico O’Reilly headed into an empty net.

O’Reilly headed in the second to seal victory for City, who remain nine points behind Arsenal in the Premier League.
