Following their 2-0 triumph in Sunday’s Carabao Cup final, Manchester City’s two-goal hero, Nico O’Reilly, declared that the team “smells blood” as they prepare to intensely pursue Arsenal’s nine-point advantage in the Premier League standings. O’Reilly’s decisive two second-half headers secured the season’s first major trophy for City against Mikel Arteta’s squad at Wembley.
This Wembley victory has invigorated Pep Guardiola’s side, who now have a crucial game in hand over the league leaders. The upcoming fixture next month at the Etihad Stadium, where City will host Arsenal, is anticipated to be a pivotal moment in their quest to reignite their bid for the Premier League title.
