Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo believes Manchester City’s EFL Cup triumph over Arsenal could provide the perfect springboard for a late-season push in the Premier League.
Arsenal currently hold a nine-point lead at the top, but City have a game in hand and face the Gunners at the Etihad next month—a fixture Semenyo sees as pivotal.
“I think it gives us a boost and confidence coming back from the international break and hopefully catching up,” Semenyo said after the cup final on Sunday.
The attacker emphasized caution, aware that form can fluctuate quickly in the title race.
“We don’t want to say too much because momentum can swing quickly, so we just have to do our job and hopefully finish off the job potentially.”
Semenyo pointed to the squad’s depth and attacking prowess as key assets in City’s quest to close the gap.
“We’ve got top quality players, we create a lot of chances, and we’ve got good goalscorers, so it can change very quickly,” Semenyo added.
With confidence high following their EFL Cup victory, City head into the final stretch of the season with renewed optimism, determined to turn momentum into results.
Meanwhile, Antoine Semenyo will now shift his attention to international duty, where he is expected to feature for Ghana against Austria and Germany in the upcoming friendly games this week.
