EFL Cup Holders Man City Survive Early Scare Defeat Wycombe Wanderers

Riyad Mahrez scored twice as Cup holders Manchester City came from behind to thrash League One Wycombe and reach the last 16 of the Carabao Cup.

The visitors took a shock lead through Brandon Hanlan, but Kevin de Bruyne levelled seven minutes later.

Mahrez claimed his double either side of half-time, with Phil Foden and Ferran Torres also beating veteran goalkeeper David Stockdale.

19-year-old Substitute Cole Palmer, added the sixth with his first goal for the club.

It was a successful night all round for City’s youngsters, with Pep Guardiola handing senior debuts to academy graduates Conrad Egan-Riley, Luke Mbete, Finley Burns, Josh Wilson-Esbrand and Romeo Lavia.

Defender Wilson-Esbrand was particularly impressive, with his excellent control and cut-back assisting Mahrez for City’s second strike.

Victory means Guardiola’s side are unbeaten in the competition since October 2016 and have reached the last 16 for the fifth successive season.
