Jesus guides City to EFL Cup final

Jan 10, 2019

Gabriel Jesus has scored four goals for Man City, to all but ensure their place in the EFL Cup final, after thrashing Burton 9-nil in this morning's first leg semifinal.

Kevin De Bruyne, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Phil Foden, Kyle Walker and Riyad Mahrez, also found the back of the net.

City have now scored 16 times in their last two games.

Burton, meanwhile, would have to pull off a miracle 10-1 win over City in the second leg, if they are to twist the end of this story.
