Manchester City wins the League Cup
Manchester City won the League Cup (Carabao Cup) for the ninth time in its history, following a 2-0 victory over Arsenal, today, Sunday, in the final match of the competition at the ancient “Wembley” Stadium in the British capital, London.
Nico O'Reilly wore the dress of excellence in the match, after scoring two goals for Manchester City within just four minutes. He opened the scoring for “Sky Blue” in the sixtieth minute, before adding the second goal in the sixty-fourth minute.
Arsenal was unable to return to the match during the remaining time of the match; He failed again to win the title, which he won in the 1986-1987 and 1992-1993 seasons, so that tournament would continue to be dedicated to the London team, which dreamed of obtaining the historic quadruple (English League, Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup) during the current season.
This was the seventh final that Arsenal lost in the League Cup, and the fourth in a row; This competition will remain closed to the ancient club until further notice.
On the other hand, this coronation comes to somewhat alleviate the criticism directed at the Spanish coach Pep Guardiola, the coach of Manchester City, after his team was eliminated from the round of 16 of the Champions League at the hands of the Spanish Real Madrid, and was significantly removed from winning the English Premier League title this season, in light of being 9 points behind Arsenal (the leaders), even if it played a match less than its competitor.
