Man City vs Inter Milan LIVE: Champions League final result and reaction after City seal historic treble

Man City 1-0 Inter Milan: Rodri’s second-half strike saw Pep Guardiola’s City win a nervy game and complete a historic treble

Manchester City fans sing on streets of Istanbul ahead of Champions League final

Rodri fired the winning goal as Manchester City finally claimed Champions League glory and completed the treble with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Inter Milan.

The midfielder rifled home in the 68th minute as the Premier League winners City wore down the Italians in a draining final at the Ataturk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul.

The contest was a tight one, with City suffering a serious blow in pursuit of the prize that has eluded them for so long when they lost Kevin De Bruyne to injury in the first half. The prolific Erling Haaland was also kept quiet by a stubborn Inter side but Rodri eventually made the breakthrough with a firm strike after a Bernardo Silva pass was deflected into his path.

It capped a momentous season for City having also won the FA Cup as well as a fifth Premier League title in six years. Their success means they also join rivals Manchester United as the only side to have won all three of those trophies in the same season. It meant mission accomplished for owner Sheikh Mansour, who was present in Istanbul at only his second match since purchasing the club in 2008 and subsequently propelling them to the game’s top table. Manager Pep Guardiola could also celebrate Champions League success again 12 years after the second of his two wins as Barcelona boss.

77’ - Man City 1-0 Inter

CHANCE! This game is becoming more and more open now. A lovely drag by Foden and he’s suddenly got space. He shoots at goal but Onana down well to save.

That was a decent chance for the England international.

Man City 1-0 Inter

Here’s the moment that Rodri calmly put City ahead. What a goal, what a moment!

75’ - Man City 1-0 Inter

Inter are suddenly surging forward now. Martinez gets into a good position and feeds Lukaku but his shot is straight at Ederson.

Kyle Walker getting ready to come on and it’s Manuel Akanji who is coming off. Walker being benched was one of the biggest pre-match calls by Guardiola but he’s got a mammoth job to do now. Actually, they wait to make that switch.

Inter do make changes though.. Bastoni off, Robin Gosens on while Raoul Bellanova is on for Dumfries

70’ - Man City 1-0 Inter

CROSSBAR! How on earth are Inter not level?!

Dimarco slips behind Akanji and his header loops over a helpless Ederson but drops on to the bar! It comes back out to him but his follow-up header is unwittingly blocked by Lukaku six yards out. It was going in!

GOAL! Man City 1-0 Inter (Rodri 68’)

A HUGE MOMENT! CITY ARE AHEAD!

For the first time, gaps start to appear in the Inter defence. Akanji slips a gorgeous ball through to Bernardo whose cutback from the byline deflects off a defender but falls for Rodri 14 yards out and he hammers it into the corner. Great technique and a massive moment.

67’ - Man City 0-0 Inter

Great defending by Bastoni! He nicks the ball away from Haaland with the Norweigan in an incredibly dangerous position ont he edge of the box. Sterling work.

66’ - Man City 0-0 Inter

Here was Guardiola when Martinez nipped in after the Ederson-Akanji mix-up. He had visions of 1-0 Inter flashing through his head...

65’ - Man City 0-0 Inter

The corner comes to nothing as the referee gives a free-kick against City for Stones pulling down Bastoni. Six of one, half a dozen of the other, as they say - both men were all over each other.

63’ - Man City 0-0 Inter

A promising counter for City, maybe a bit more pace is the way to go? Rodri has Stones on the overlap on the right, feeds him and his cross is blocked out for a corner. Haaland was lurking at the back post there!

[10 June 2023 21:22 · Luke Baker]

62’ - Man City 0-0 Inter

Akanji looks a bit nervy suddenly after that near disaster and his jitters almost see him give the ball away again. City are getting a bit tense here and that’s all because Inter are frustrating them.
