Manchester City wins the 2023 Champions League

Manchester City wins the 2023 Champions League on Saturday after a dramatic match against Inter Milan, adding another English club to the Champions League history books. Pep Guardiola and his boys have reason to celebrate!

Just a year ago, the world looked very different. The British team was eliminated in the semifinals against the Spanish team Real Madrid in 2022, and Real became champion. This year, it was the other way around. Real Madrid was knocked out of the tournament by Manchester City in the semifinals. Now the Brits were in the final and met the Italians there. The game seemed almost a little nervous and was characterized by tight penalty area scenes. Sometimes the players wanted to break through the opponent's penalty area with a crowbar. Incredible chances presented themselves on both sides. For example, in the 6th minute, Bernardo Silva moved in the penalty area on the goal of the Italians - a dangerous scene. In the 27th minute, Haaland got in front of Inter Milan's goal after a steep pass and took off, but the opposing goalkeeper, André Onana, made a save. In the first phase of this clash, Manchester City clearly had the better chances and seemed superior. But in the 58th minute suddenly switched sides. Lautaro Martinez snatched the ball away from an English defender and was suddenly alone in front of the goalkeeper and now Manchester was on fire, but goalkeeper Stefan Ortega Moreno parried the shot. Coach Pep Guardialo went down on his knees in shock! But in the 68th minute it finally happens. Manchster's constant assault on the Inter goal pays off. A through pass penetrates the Inter penalty area, the ball is kicked back and Rodrigo pulls the trigger: 1:0! Toooor!!! but now Inter has to come. 3 minutes later, defender Dimarco heads against the Manchester crossbar. In the counterattack, the Manchester boys cross the field with quick passes, Phil Foden takes off in the 77th minute in the penalty area alone in front of the goalkeeper, that could have been the decision, but Onana holds. Now the Inter players come back. Robin Gosens takes a cross with his head in the 87th minute and passes it on to Lukaku, who is in front of the goalkeeper and tries to head the ball in, but Ortega Moreno is able to block with his knee. The equalizer was so close. A final surge in the 96th minute. Inter plays the corner kick with a cross and again Robin Gosens heads on goal and again Manchester's goalkeeper saves successfully and now it's over! The whistle blows. Manchester City wins the match and deservedly becomes Champions League champion 2023!
