Manchester City hosted Norwich City in a Carabao Cup third-round tie on September 17 at the Etihad Stadium. Manager Enzo Maresca made 10 changes to his starting lineup, giving competitive minutes to several new signings including goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli, midfielder Allan, and forward Floyd Samba, all making their first appearances for the club. The Citizens dominated possession but struggled to break down Norwich’s disciplined defensive setup organized by captain Grant Hanley. Goalkeeper Daniel Grimshaw, a former City academy product, guarded Norwich’s goal. Manchester City, unbeaten in their last five matches across all competitions and record nine-time winners of the competition, remain favorites to advance past this round.
