What's the story

This weekend was perfect for football fans.

Manchester United vs Chelsea and the League cup final, we saw it all.

Arsene Wenger's Arsenal were humbled by Manchester City, while in La Liga Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have set new records.

However, for PSG, their victory came at a cost.

Here is all the action from the weekend's football fixtures.

1st of 3 trophies?

Manchester City win the League Cup

Manchester City have won their first piece of silverware of the season after beating Arsene Wenger's Arsenal 3-0 at Wembley on Sunday.

Sergio Aguero, Vincent Kompany and David Silva were on the score-sheet for the blue half of Manchester.

This is also Pep Guardiola's first trophy since taking over Manchester City in 2016.

Major blow

Neymar injury mars PSG victory

Paris Saint Germain extended their Ligue 1 lead to 14 points after a comfortable 3-0 victory over Marseille.

Teenager Kylian Mbappe and Uruguayan goal-machine Edinson Cavani scored the goals for the Parisians.

Fingers crossed

Will Neymar be fit for the clash against Real Madrid?

Neymar rolled his right ankle and was in tears before being carried away.

This comes as a major blow to PSG, especially since the second leg encounter of PSG and Real Madrid is only 10 days away.

Without Neymar, it would be a difficult task for PSG to stop Madrid on March 6.

Madrid lead PSG 3-1 after the opening leg at Santiago Bernabeu.
