Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City has reached their third successive Carabao Cup final despite losing 1-0 to city rival, Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium.
Man City eliminated the Reds on 3-2 aggregate and will be playing against Aston Villa in the Finals.
The Citizens were leading 3-1 from the first leg at Old Trafford, the holders pushed forward in search of a goal to put the tie to bed but could find no way past an inspired David de Gea.
Instead, United put things back in the balance before half-time when Nemanja Matic put them ahead on the night with their first effort at goal.
United had created nothing in open play but City could only half-clear Fred’s free-kick and Matic swept a powerful first-time strike past Claudio Bravo.
“Over 180 minutes we were better than United,” said Guardiola. “We created chances to score a lot of goals and didn’t convert. We need to learn to be more clinical.
