Analysis
Phil Foden starred for Manchester City as they beat a poor Arsenal side 4-1 at the Emirates Stadium to advance to the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup.
Just three minutes into the game, Manchester City were up and running as Gabriel Jesus headed home an Oleksandr Zinchenko cross from close range. The Cityzens continued to control the game from there on, but against the run of play, Arsenal found an equaliser in the 31st minute as Alexandre Lacazette headed in a fine cross from Gabriel Martinelli.

Alexandre Lacazette missed a big chance to draw the Gunners level towards the midway stage following a good move from the back.
Lacazette atoned for the miss on the half-hour mark when he got on the end of a ball from Martinelli to head in with sheer ease as the Citizens failed to clear their defensive lines.
