Arsenal player Noni Madueke stated the team "can't sulk" after their 2-0 defeat to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final, urging them to take setbacks in their stride.

The loss at Wembley meant Mikel Arteta's side missed out on their first chance of silverware this season, though they still have a chance at a treble.

Madueke's immediate focus is on England's friendly against Uruguay, where manager Thomas Tuchel plans to test players on the fringes of his World Cup squad.

He expressed a personal ambition to become more prolific in front of goal, acknowledging it is an ongoing process.

Madueke, known for his dribbling ability, highlighted that both his club and national team coaches encourage him to express his qualities on the pitch.
