All over at Wembley, it has been for the last half an hour.
Manchester City swat Arsenal aside to win the Carabao Cup.
It is Pep Guardiola’s first trophy as manager. You would expect a few more to follow
Arsenal 0-3 Man City
The Manchester City fans waving their blue flags at Wembley.
This is going to be a procession for their side. Still over 20 minutes remaining.

First trophy incoming for Pep Guardiola.
Vincent Kompany wins the corner and pokes home Manchester City’s second goal himself.

The Belgian’s first goal since May and what a time to get it. He wheels away in celebrating in front of his own fans.
HALF-TIME
Arsenal 0-1 Man City
Sergio Aguero’s goal the difference at the interval.
GOAL! ARSENAL 0-1 MAN CITY (Aguero, 19)
Simple as you like for City. It’s awful defending from Mustafi, who misjudges Bravo’s goal kick. Is there a nudge from Aguero? It looks like there’s not much in it and the ball goes over the defender’s head. Aguero’s in on goal. Ospina comes off his line and the striker lifts the ball over the goalkeeper and into the back of the net.
