Manchester City won the English League Cup final against Arsenal with a score of 2-0. The goals were scored by 21-year-old Nico O'Reilly within four minutes. O'Reilly capitalized on a goalkeeper error by Kepa Arrizabalaga and later headed in the second goal from a cross by Matheus Nunes.
This is Manchester City's eighth League Cup win and their first since 2021, marking the club's first title since 2024. Viktor Gyökeres started and played the entire match for Arsenal but did not contribute beyond his presence. Gyökeres is set to be a key player for Sweden in their World Cup playoff against Ukraine next week.
