TOP GUN AT DOUBLE

MANCHESTER CITY'S biggest rivals could not stop them doing the Double - and now history beckons.

TOP GUN AT DOUBLE

Two sensational volleys from skipper Ilkay Gundogan clinched the FA Cup at Wembley and the oldest trophy in English football now sits alongside the Premier League title in City's cabinet.

So, it is onto Istanbul and the chance of a Treble.

Manchester United's team of 1999 have stood alone at the summit of English football for 24 years.

But if Pep Guardiola's side beat Inter Milan at the Ataturk Stadium on Saturday night, then immortality is also theirs.

Sir Alex Ferguson was there to see the gulf in class between these two Manchester giants for himself. City were well below their fluent best and credit goes to United boss Erik ten Hag for coming up with a tactical plan that frustrated the champions.

Erling Haaland hardly got a sniff of goal and Kevin De Bruyne was snuffed out by Fred.

But this City team have so many weapons - and Gundogan made it his final.

The German secured a place in the record books by scoring the quickest goal in the final's 151-year history after just 12.91 seconds.

And, after United dragged themselves level through Bruno Fernandes' penalty following a controversial VAR decision, Gundogan conjured up another volley to secure the trophy six minutes into the second half.
