RED and Blue - Manchester burst into joy and despair as City beat United to win the FA Cup final at Wembley.
Some 80,000 packed into the national stadium in London for an historic tie it was the first time in the competition's 152-year history that the Blues and Reds had met in the final.
Back in Manchester, those without tickets watched the drama unfold on screens large and small in homes, pubs and other venues across the city.
A Bruno Fernandez penalty equalised Ilkay Gundogan's opener to see the sides go in level at half-time.
In the second half, Gundogan grabbed a second and, despite a late flurry from United, City survived.
They lifted the cup, in the process landing the league and cup double on their way to what Blues hope will end up in the treble should they win next week's Champions League final.
At Mary D's pub near City's Etihad stadium, Blues fan Peter Bethune said of the scenes as the final whistle blew: "I thought the roof was going to lift off."
