[ad_1]
It will be Manchester City-Inter in the Champions League final on 10 June in Istanbul. Pep Guardiola’s team eliminated Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid by winning the second leg 4-0 (brace from Bernardo Silva, own goal from Militao and Alvarez) after the draw in the first leg with an impressive performance, absolutely dominating. City play the perfect match and thus gain access to their second Champions League final after the one they lost against Chelsea two years ago and Guardiola celebrates his 100th victory in the Champions League.
Despite the elimination, that of Manchester is still a special evening for Carlo Ancelotti who becomes – with 191 benches (107 wins, 43 draws and 40 defeats) – the absolute record holder in the Champions League, ahead of a legend like Sir Alex Ferguson. At the Etihad Stadium we started from 1-1 in the first leg. Guardiola fielded the exact same formation sent to the field at the Bernabeu. Akanji from central left with Stones together with Rodri in midfield, Haaland offensive terminal with Bernardo Silva and Grealish on the lanes while Carlo Ancelotti changed only one man compared to the first leg team. Play Militao for Rudiger. In attack Benzema with Vinicius and Rodrygo. The script of the game is clear right away: City play the game, Real defend and restart.
The British are a war machine. «We are in the Champions League final, it doesn’t happen often. I feel a lot of happiness. It’s the second time in three years, now we’re preparing for Sunday’s match which will be useful for winning the championship and then we’ll think about the Champions League,” Guardiola declared hotly. «Is the Champions League an obsession? No, the Champions League is special, we know it’s a difficult competition. We had a great game, especially in the first half, but not so much in the second half. But we’re in the final, we’re there.” The arduous sentence for Inter.
