English League Cup: Man City beats Watford 2-1, Chelsea thrashed Barrow 5-0

STEVE DOUGLAS (AP) — Playing just two days after a feisty Premier League match against Arsenal , Manchester City fielded a heavily rotated team and still had too much for second-tier Watford in the English League Cup.

City won 2-1 thanks to first-half goals by Jeremy Doku and Matheus Nunes at Etihad Stadium as the third round continued Tuesday with fellow top-flight teams Chelsea, Aston Villa and Leicester also advancing.
