Wayne Rooney scored a decisive stoppage-time goal as Manchester United beat Manchester City 3-1 to reach the League Cup final here on Wednesday.

The holders will play Aston Villa in the final after overturning a 2-1 deficit from last week’s semi-final first leg.

Goals from Paul Scholes and Michael Carrick had put United in charge but the tie appeared destined for extra-time after Carlos Tevez pulled one back for City.

Rooney however had the final word with the England striker scoring his 21st goal of the season to send Sir Alex Ferguson’s side back to Wembley.
