Manchester City rules the Champions League for the first time, completing a rare treble with title wins in this year's FA Cup and Premier League.
ISTANBUL, Turkey – Manchester City finally expanded their domestic domination across the continent as they beat Inter Milan, 1-0, with a second-half Rodri goal to win the Champions League for the first time and complete a rare treble on a nervous Saturday evening, June 10 .
“You have to be lucky… It was written in the stars. It belongs to us,” said City manager Pep Guardiola. “With this competition, the treble is so difficult.” Even City’s Norwegian goal-machine Erling Haaland found himself shackled, but in the end Spanish midfielder Rodri, starting his 52nd game of the season, came to the rescue.“Emotional. A dream come true. All these guys around here waited I don’t know how many years. They deserve, we deserve,” Rodri told BT Sport as Guardiola hugged his players and City’s fans sang the name of Sheikh Mansour, whose takeover of the club in 2008 has turned City into serial trophy winners.
In finally guiding City to the European Holy Grail after gut-wrenching near misses, Guardiola became the first manager to achieve two trebles in European football, having done the Spanish equivalent with Barcelona in 2009.
