On Tuesday late evening, the first semi-final match of the English League Cup was played. At the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City faced Bristol City. The guests were close to a draw in the first leg, but a late goal by Sergio Aguero determined the victory for the citizens. In the closing moments of the first half, Bristol City made a serious bid for victory - John Stones made a mistake in his penalty area and was punished with a penalty. Bobby Reid successfully converted the penalty and put the away team ahead. However, in the second half, Man City dictated the terms and equalized in the 55th minute. Kevin De Bruyne combined well with Raheem Sterling and restored balance with a precise shot in this duel. During the remaining time, Man City had more possession and created dangerous opportunities, but Bristol City's defense proved reliable. Nevertheless, taking a draw from Manchester was unsuccessful for the visitors - in added time, Bernardo Silva lifted the ball into the penalty area, where Sergio Aguero, free from defenders, headed in to secure victory for the hosts. The second leg between these teams will take place in Bristol on January 23. Result: Man City 2 - 1 Bristol City 44' [0 - 1] B. Reid (penalty kick) 55' [1 - 1] K. De Bruyne 90+2' [2 - 1] S. Aguero
