Carabao Cup Champions: The Last 10 Teams to Lift the Trophy
#6. Manchester City (2018–19)
In 2019, Manchester City secured the Carabao Cup in a thrilling penalty shoot-out against Chelsea. After a deadlock in regular and extra time, Ederson’s crucial save and Raheem Sterling’s decisive goal led City to a 4-3 victory. This triumph marked their second EFL Cup under manager Pep Guardiola that season.
#5. Manchester City (2019-20)
In 2020, Manchester City secured their third consecutive Carabao Cup, marking their fifth triumph in seven years. It came after a hard-fought 2-1 win against Aston Villa at Wembley. Despite the controversy surrounding Rodri’s decisive goal, City, managed by Pep Guardiola, displayed dominance. Sergio Aguero opened the scoring in the 20th minute, and Rodri added the second 10 minutes later. Although Ally Samatta pulled one back for Villa before halftime, they couldn’t overturn the deficit, sealing City’s EFL Cup victory.
