Pape Matar Sarr’s ranged effort squeezed into the bottom right corner on 25 minutes as the Senegalese midfielder met a Kulusevski cutback.

City halved the deficit on the brink of half-time, Matheus Nunes‘s first-time finish at the back post a gentle reminder of the threat City posed.

And despite enjoying more chances in the second half, Pep Guardiola‘s side couldn’t produce the key final pass to find a second goal and as a result our Carabao Cup journey came to an end.
