Manchester City 6-1 Wycombe: Pep Guardiola's side continue their defence of their Carabao Cup title as his young side thrashes League One opposition

Manchester City continued their Carabao Cup title defence with a fine 6-1 victory against Wycombe at the Etihad on Tuesday evening.

Striker Brandon Hanlan scored his first ever Wycombe goal after City failed to deal with a corner, but dancing feet from Phil Foden helped set up Kevin De Bruyne to equalise shortly afterwards.

Riyad Mahrez, a minute after hitting the post, and Foden scored two quickfire goals just before half-time to put the game to bed and Ferran Torres continued the rout with a second-half finish.

Mahrez grabbed a second and teenager Cole Palmer hit the visitors for six with two minutes left as Pep Guardiola's inexperienced team prevailed easily.
