Manchester City wins its eighth FA Cup trophy

Manchester City has won its eighth FA Cup trophy.

City beat Chelsea 1-0 in the 145th final of the prestigious English competition.

It was Antoine Semenyo's goal that decided the match, which was played on Saturday at the iconic “Wembley” Stadium.

In the 72nd minute, Semenyo, assisted by Erling Haaland, scored to make it 1-0.

There were other scoring chances before the end, but no more goals.

And so, City celebrates another trophy this season, following the League Cup, which it won earlier in the campaign.

Pep Guardiola's City are also in contention to triumph in the English top flight.

With two rounds remaining, City are second with 77 points, two fewer than Arsenal.

For Spanish coach Guardiola, it was the 20th trophy he has won with Manchester City in ten years. City have won the FA Cup three times with Guardiola. Guardiola has also won the Premier League six times, the League Cup five times, the English Super Cup three times, the Champions League once, the UEFA Super Cup once, and the Club World Cup once with this team. 

For Chelsea, it is their seventh consecutive defeat in as many finals at “Wembley”.

The FA Cup is one of the most interesting competitions in the history of football. A total of 747 teams take part, and City triumphed in the end. The FA Cup began on August 1 with the preliminary round.
