Manchester City have secured their first trophy of the season after defeating Arsenal 2 0 to win the Carabao Cup at Wembley.

Pep Guardiola’s side entered the match following their elimination from the UEFA Champions League round of 16 by Real Madrid, ending their hopes of a quadruple.

Arsenal, meanwhile, came into the fixture still competing on multiple fronts in pursuit of silverware.

The first half ended without goals as both teams maintained a cautious approach.

Manchester City broke the deadlock in the second half after a goalkeeping error from Kepa Arrizabalaga allowed Nico O’Reilly to head into an empty net.

O’Reilly added a second goal to seal the victory, ensuring City lifted the trophy.

Despite the win, City remain nine points behind Arsenal in the Premier League standings.
