League Cup Final - Post Match Thread

Just got back after having had an overnight in Hertford, and have only read the last 4 pages.

I presume that the posters from the prematch thread who were casting their doubts on Bravo's ability and how he would cost us dearly, have now all eaten humble pie. An assist for the first goal, two excellent saves, and almost perfect distribution that Ederson would have been proud of.

A great day out, a fine win, and the first of many trophies for Pep's team.

Well done lads.
 
The second goal and, technically, he has a case. They showed a reply in the ground that had me looking intently at the ref to see if VAR would spoil the fun, having just celebrated wildly.

Sane was definitely offside in a position that could have been deemed to have unsighted the keeper; however, Ospina's movement suggests that Sane did not affect the keeper who was clearly moving in the direction of Gundogan's shot and had absolutely no hope of recovering and stopping Vinnie's deflection. I think Sane was therefore an irrelevance and the goal correctly stood, but I am biased.
Jokes of the year.
From behind the goal Sane clearly is not interfering with play as Gundogan shoots and Kompany deliberately deflects it.
As to the first goal Aguero stood his ground as Mustafi backed into him. Sergio placed his arm so that Mustafi backing into him would not bring him down.
