Goals from Sergio Aguero and Rodri secured a third consecutive Carabao Cup final triumph for City as we overcame Aston Villa 2-1 in a pulsating contest at Wembley.
Aguero and Rodri both struck in the opening half hour with City in dominant form.
But Mbwanna Samatta’s late first half effort gave the Villans a shot in the arm and made for a compelling second half.
And it needed a stunning late save from Claudio Bravo, who pushed Bjorn Engels 88th minute header onto a post to maintain our lead.
However City, with Phil Foden producing a dazzling display, deservedly saw the job through to seal a hat-trick of League Cup wins following our triumphs in 2018 and 2019.
