Manchester City defeated Premier League rival Arsenal to win the English Football League (EFL) Carabao Cup.
City secured a 2-0 victory over Arsenal in the 2025-2026 Carabao Cup final at Wembley Stadium in London on the 22nd (local time).
The win marks City's ninth Carabao Cup title and their first since the 2020-2021 season, ending a five-year wait.
Manager Pep Guardiola claimed his fifth Carabao Cup trophy, surpassing former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson's four titles to become the most successful manager in the competition's history.
Arsenal, seeking their first title since the 1992-1993 season—a 33-year drought—must wait for another opportunity.
