🏆 Manchester United defeated Manchester City to win the FA Cup.

For the second year in a straight, it was an all-Manchester FA Cup final, with Pep Guardiola's side hoping to repeat their 2023 success over Erik ten Hag's men.

This is what occurred.

United's teen dream.

Despite Manchester City's late surge, Manchester United won the FA Cup final with a 2-1 victory at Wembley.

Manchester City had a penalty claim within seconds, but Haaland's protests were denied following an apparent push by Lisandro Martinez.

United had their own penalty appeal on 20 minutes when Bruno Fernandes went down inside the area, but the referee waved play on.

Ten Hag's team broke the stalemate after half an hour when Alejandro Garnacho tapped in following a massive mix-up in the City defence.

United believed they had increased their lead just a few minutes later, but Marcus Rashford's strike was ruled out for offside.

The second goal came on 39 minutes, when Kobbie Mainoo capped off a superb team play.

Into the second half, United remained ahead as City went for broke, bringing on Jeremy Doku and Julian Alvarez.

Doku was quickly involved in the action, attempting to square for Foden, but the England international was unable to find his feet as Andre Onana snatched the ball.

On 54 minutes, City had their greatest chance of the game, when Haaland got space at the back post but saw his attempt rebound off the crossbar.

Guardiola's team was really pouring on the pressure now, as Kyle Walker's 20-yard shot was saved acrobatically by Onana.

It was becoming an onslaught, but City couldn't reach the back of the net as Alvarez got through but slipped his shot wide of the post.


United were holding on now, and Haaland believed Mainoo was doing the same inside the area on 75 minutes.

Despite Guardiola's several objections on the sideline, their calls for a penalty were denied once more.

That pressure paid off with three minutes of regular time remaining, as Doku struck from the perimeter of the area.

However, it wasn't enough as United won the FA Cup for the 13th time.

Barcelona dealt enormous injury blow ahead of Inter and Real Madrid clashes.

In a heartbreaking evening, Barcelona came back from two goals down against Inter in the Champions League semi-final first leg. The Blaugrana will believe they should have won the game after losing twice from set pieces. Now they're calculating the expense. After only 42 minutes, French defender Jules Kounde collapsed on the pitch, clutching the back of his calf. He had to be replaced by Eric Garcia, who performed admirably as a right-back out of position. Kounde's injury has raised concerns ahead of a number of critical games. Kounde will be tested on Thursday, but it appears that he has a muscle problem, most likely more serious than a grade tear. According to Sport, Kounde will miss their La Liga match against Real Valladolid, their Champions League return leg in Milan against Inter, and their decisive Clasico against Real Madrid the following weekend. Kounde was seen limping as he exited the stadium, telling the cameras, 'We'll see tomorrow'.

Fiorentina midfielder Edoardo Bove collapsed during a Serie A match.

Edoardo Bove, a Fiorentina midfielder, slumped on the pitch during his team's Serie A match against Inter Milan on Sunday. Bove's teammates hastily shouted for medical assistance and surrounded the 22-year-old before doctors treated him and quickly transferred him to a nearby ambulance on the side of the pitch. The event occurred in the 16th minute of the match, which was momentarily suspended at 0-0 and then abandoned with plans to reschedule later in the season. According to Sky Sport Italia, Bove was rushed to the Careggi Hospital near Fiorentina's Stadio Artemio Franchi. The Italian broadcaster later stated that Bove was breathing and beating on his own. In the minutes following Bove's fall, his teammates and opponents were visibly stunned and sad, with some in tears. In April, Roma defender Evan Ndicka collapsed with a hand on his chest, and Piermario Morosini died after heart arrest during a Serie B match 12 years ago. Inter and Fiorentina are both near the ...
