If it was designed to lift clouds around this Spurs squad and spark a reaction that might overcome City, it failed miserably. Manchester City have won 19 of their 25 League Cup matches under Pep Guardiola (D4 L2); with only Roy Evans (78.3%) posting a higher win percentage among managers in League Cup history than the Spaniard (76%). Aymeric Laporte became the third French player to score in a League Cup final, after Louis Saha for Manchester United in 2006 and Samir Nasri for Manchester City in 2014. City's Kevin de Bruyne provided his 17th assist of the season, more than any other Premier League player has registered in all competitions.
