The Carling Cup final started off with a bang on Sunday. No sooner than the 5th minute, Aston Villa got on the board with a James Milner penalty. United responded with a Michael Owen goal in the 12th minute but the goalscorer was subbed off before halftime due to injury.

By that time the damage was done and any chance of a Chelsea comeback was killed off. City went on to win 4-2 and …
