Football: Man City beat Sunderland to win league Cup final
City are six points behind Premier League leaders Chelsea, but with two games in hand.
LONDON (AFP) - Manchester City kept alive their hopes of winning four major trophies in one season by coming from behind to beat Sunderland 3-1 in the English League Cup final at Wembley on Sunday.
Fabio Borini s 10th-minute goal gave underdogs Sunderland the lead. But City hit back with two goals in the space of a minute against their fellow Premier League side.
Yaya Toure s sensational long-distance curling shot drew City level in the 55th minute and barely 60 seconds later Samir Nasri s precise finish fired them in front.
Jesus Navas then sealed victory in the final minute of normal time with a goal on the counter-attack.
City are six points behind Premier League leaders Chelsea, but with two games in hand, and in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup -- where they face Wigan, the team that beat them in last season s final.
They are also in the last 16 of the Champions League but will have to overturn a 2-0 first leg deficit away to Spanish giants Barcelona on March 12 if they are to reach the last eight.
