Manchester City wins Capital One Cup 2016


Willy Caballero was Manchester City's hero as they beat Liverpool on penalties to win the Capital One Cup at Wembley. The 34-year-old Argentine goalkeeper spectacularly rewarded the faith of manager Manuel Pellegrini with saves from Lucas, Philippe Coutinho and Adam Lallana in the shoot-out after he was selected ahead of first-choice Joe Hart. Pellegrini said the secret of Caballero's success was his nerve. "He's a very good goalkeeper," the City manager said. "He waited for all the [Liverpool] players to shoot. He never guessed. That is why he saved three penalties."
Pellegrini will leave City at the end of the season and will be replaced by Pep Guardiola.
