Yes, hard work really pays. Man City over the years have suffered a lot to reach the champions league final for the first time in their history. They have really invested a lot in making sure this is achieved. Champions league football is what every team dreams of winning. They have over the years dominated in the premiership and were looking forward to extend that form to the European competition. They reached quarter finals last season where they were eliminated by Lyon.
Having won the first league 2-1 last week, they were hoping to secure their win in the 2nd league too. Both team exhibited quality football last week and today was also great.

Both team started the game very well with PSG making all the incursions and controlling the ball at the early stages of the game. They were realy determined to continued their away performances in this year's champions league. they have been absolutely phenomenal at the away games, Beating Barca and Bayern all away. The referee at the early stage awarded a penalty to PSG but was overturned by VAR.
City Got their first goal through a fine through ball from Ederson to Zinchenko who fed his cross to Kevin De Bruyne who shot was pounced by Mahrez.
City took over the game with their passing game and ended the first half with that slander lead.
PSG in the 2nd half came in stronger hoping they can get the equalizer and then continue to win the game. But City having another options for them that is to catch them on counter attack.
It really paid off and Mahrez again got the 2nd goal from a fine pass from Foden.
Angel Di Maria was red carded after tussling with Fernandinho later in the game. It was all over for PSG just as it happened At PARC DE FRANCAIS.
Man City are now through to the final waiting for the winner between Chelsea and Real madrid tomorrow.
I use this opportunity to congratulate the citizens for this fate achieved.
They truly deserves it and good luck to them in finals.
Thank you everyone for your attention.
