Leicester 1-1 Man City (3-4 AET): Contentious Penalty Forces Sky Blues Through the Hard Way

Manchester City progressed through to the semi-finals of the League Cup on Tuesday after beating Leicester City 4-3 on penalties at the King Power Stadium.

Bernardo Silva's poked finish in the first-half gave city the lead for much of the game, before a soft penalty was converted by Jamie Vardy in stoppage time to make it 1-1 and send the game to extra time.

Ilkay Gundogan and Eliaquim Mangala were the only survivors from Saturday's 4-1 mauling of Spurs in the Premier League, with promising academy products Oleksandr Zinchenko, Phil Foden, Brahim Diaz and Tosin Adarabioyo all getting a taste of the first team.
