Ilkay Gundogan scored twice as City defeated nearby rivals United 2-1 at Wembley to claim their sixth FA Cup trophy.
The fastest FA Cup final goal in history was scored by Gundogan in just 13 seconds, although United tied the game before halftime on Bruno Fernandes’ penalty.
However, United’s advantage was short-lived as Gundogan gave Manchester City the lead again six minutes after the restart with another long-range volley.
Keane noted that this is not the first time the Brazilian has cost his team, Man City, a free-kick on the wing that Fred gave away for an unnecessary foul on Kevin de Bruyne.
ITV Football was informed by the former Manchester United captain that “Fred had Kevin de Bruyne where he wants him.” De Bruyne gets fouled by Fred while facing the goal.
It’s the height of foolishness… But over the years, we’ve seen that from him a lot.
Even though Manchester City lost to their neighbourhood rivals at Wembley, Erik ten Hag’s team still had a bright year overall. They finished third in the Premier League and won their first trophy since 2017 with the League Cup.
‘Today is tough to take, you come to Wembley and don’t win – that’s tough’, ex-United custodian Peter Schmeichel said on BBC One.
But the season has been excellent. Even if the first two games of the season didn’t go well, United ended up third and winning a trophy.
Erik ten Hag has eliminated ten years of uncertainty, and the future appears to be quite promising.
With just one more victory, Manchester City can complete an unprecedented trifecta by winning the Champions League in addition to the Premier League and FA Cup.
Now that we have the treble, City manager Pep Guardiola stated. We still need to win the Champions League, of course. For our city and our supporters, we had such a great performance today.
