"City beat Newcastle United 3-1 in the second leg of their semi-final tie on Wednesday, sealing a 5-1 aggregate success after triumphing 2-0 at St James' Park two weeks ago. Omar Marmoush netted twice and Tijjani Reijnders joined him on the scoresheet to effectively end the tie within 32 minutes, though City gave up plenty of chances in an open second half."
"And hopefully you can convince the Carabao Cup that Marc Guehi should play in the final, because it's difficult to understand that the club makes a big investment to pay a player who belongs to us, and I don't understand why he cannot play. So hopefully we will write a letter and the Carabao Cup can understand. He's not able to play, because of a rule that I don't understand. Hopefully, they can change it."
Manchester City beat Newcastle United 3-1 in the second leg to complete a 5-1 aggregate semi-final following a 2-0 first-leg win. Omar Marmoush scored twice and Tijjani Reijnders added a goal, with the tie effectively settled inside 32 minutes despite an open second half. January signing Marc Guehi was ineligible because he was not registered before the Newcastle match and will therefore miss the Carabao Cup final against Arsenal on March 22. Pep Guardiola said he will write to the competition to request a rule change so Guehi can play. City have reached ten EFL Cup finals, level with Chelsea and Manchester United.
