Read Time:39 Second
Pep Guardiola has got off the mark with his first piece of silverware in English football, courtesy of Manchester City‘s 3-0 victory over Arsenal in this afternoon’s EFL Cup final at Wembley Stadium.
The Citizens triumphed in the competition for the third time in five years through goals from Sergio Aguero, Vincent Kompany and David Silva under the famous arch.
City barely had to break stride to earn their first trophy under Guardiola, with Arsenal failing to get going at all in the second half as they suffered a fourth defeat in six matches, leaving them with just the Europa League to fight for.
In the maiden major final between these two sides in any competition, it was Arsenal who created the first big chance which they were unable to take.
