'Carabao Cup should be renamed Claudio Bravo Cup' - Man City keeper's heroics hailed by Zinchenko

The Carabao Cup should be renamed the 'Claudio Bravo Cup', joked Oleksandr Zinchenko, following the Manchester City goalkeeper's late heroics against Aston Villa.

Bravo delivered an inspired moment for City at Wembley when he produced a fantastic diving save to keep out Bjorn Engels' header in the dying embers of the final.

His contribution helped to deliver a third consecutive Carabao Cup trophy for Pep Guardiola's men, and left-back Zinchenko was more than grateful for the Chilean's performance.
