City drops 9-0 hammer on West Ham

Manchester City swept into the League Cup final with a ruthless 3-0 win at West Ham on Tuesday which completed a 9-0 aggregate victory in a brutally one-sided semifinal.

Manuel Pellegrini's side had already effectively booked its place at Wembley after winning the first leg 6-0 at Eastlands, but it didn't take it easy in the return at Upton Park.

Alvaro Negredo and Sergio Aguero put City two goals up before halftime in east London and Negredo struck again after the break to cap another clinical display from one of the most potent strike forces in Europe.
