Manchester city continue their perfect start to the season as they defeated Arsenal 3-0 in the Carabo cup to secure their first silverware  of the season.

After ending last season empty-handed, Pep Guardiola has won his first trophy for city and he did it in the most fashionable style against Arsene Wenger.

It was the first time Arsenal and Manchester City will be meeting in a major cup final. Though the Gunners outshined City in the recent feature when both sides met in Wembley, Arsene Wenger and his team were simply outshined on Sunday.

Pep Guardiola's city got off to a bright start as a perfect cross from Bravo was sharply converted by in form striker Sergio Aguero giving them the lead in the 18th minute.

The first half ended in city's favor as they maintained the 1-0 lead, the Cityzens continued to dominate in the second half as City's captain "Vincent Kompany" doubled the lead just before the hour mark.

All hopes of Arsenal to comeback to the game were futile when David Silva made it 3-0 in the 65th minute.

With city dominating the Carabo cup and also going on to win the trophy, a domestic double is on the cards as Manchester City are on course to also win the Premier League title.

With just 10 games left to play in the Premier League this season, City have a massive 13 point lead despite a game at hand compared to their closest rivals.

Manchester City are also one leg in the quarter final of the Champions League after they dismantled Basel in the first leg.

The only hope of winning a silverware for Arsenal is if they can go all the way in the Europa League and win the title.

They have been drawn to face AC Milan in the round of 16 in the Europa league.
