Floyd Samba, a 17-year-old debutant, scored twice to help Manchester City dismantle Norwich 5-0 and advance to the fourth round of the English League Cup, where they will face Brighton.

The hosts started the match at a leisurely pace, and initially, Norwich managed to contain their opponents, preventing clear chances and shots on goal. However, Norwich’s resistance lasted only until the 29th minute when Nico O’Reilly delivered a cross from the left flank. The goalkeeper misjudged the ball, allowing the young Floyd Samba to head it in for a 1-0 lead.

Just three minutes later, Ryan Sherki capitalized on a one-on-one opportunity to double City’s advantage. Manchester City Complete EFL Cup Last-16 Lineup with 5-0 Win Over Norwich
