In a commanding display, Newcastle United secured a 4-1 victory against Bradford City in Wednesday's League Cup tie, thanks to two-goal contributions from both Joelinton and William Osula. This win propels Newcastle into the fourth round, bolstering hopes of replicating last season's trophy success.
Meanwhile, Manchester City saw Phil Foden leading the charge, netting once and assisting another in a comfortable 2-0 away win over Huddersfield Town. Other top-tier teams, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, also celebrated victories, reinforcing their bids in the tournament.
Newcastle, under manager Eddie Howe, exhibited strategic dominance with Joelinton's early goal setting the pace.
