Liverpool vs. Manchester City: Capital One Cup Final 2016 Score and Reaction

Manchester City reclaimed the Capital One Cup trophy on Sunday after defeating Liverpool 3-1 on penalties at Wembley, where goals from Fernandinho and Philippe Coutinho saw the two sides draw 1-1 after 120 minutes.

Reds goalkeeper Simon Mignolet recovered from a first-half howler to put on a dazzling display, but City's stand-in stopper Willy Caballero was the man of the moment after saving three Liverpool penalties to seal the League Cup triumph.

Caballero saved three penalties for City in the shootout.

Injuries to Martin Skrtel and Dejan Lovren meant Lucas Leiva deputised alongside Mamadou Sakho at centre-back for Liverpool, but an early injury to the Frenchman hurt the Merseysiders chances of lifting the title.
