Football is fascinating because it includes all of the events that one wishes to see, such as the UCL final, which I would not forgive myself if I missed. Place my wager in favor of City, and I go home happy because making 3x my initial deposit was worthy of being triggered. Manchester City have won the Premier League, FA cup title and finally their first ever Champions league trophy, after defeating Inter Milan in the final. Unfortunately for the Nerazzurri and other Italian clubs, qualifying for a series of finals and failing to return home victorious, Inter Milan did their best just to return to Stadio Giuseppe Meaza with the trophy, but I guess it wasn't their lucky day to win.
A final match is fascinating enough with many twists from De Bruyne injury, the goal from Rodri, wasted chance from Lautaro Martinez and very last twists from Di Marco and Lukaku, also almost perfect handle from Foden.
It's another sad day for Serie A with another club failed in another final match. All three clubs, AS Roma, Fiorentina and Inter Milan failed but having three clubs in three finals is already a success. If Serie A can continue this trend, the league will return to be one of strongest leagues in Europe again. I hope so but Italian clubs must improve their finance first and latest years, more clubs successfully constructed their own stadiums which are surely one of their biggest income in future.
hat final whistle left us gasping, didn't it? The double whammy of De Bruyne's unfortunate trip to the physio and the bolt from the blue - Rodri's goal, no less - had us glued to our screens. Then, the plot twist of all plot twists unfolded for our Serie A players. Roma, Fiorentina, and the mighty Inter Milan had the rug pulled right from under them. A real heart-wrencher, ain't it? But let's not get lost in the sauce. Three teams making it to the grand stage from the same league? That's something worth writing home about.
Inter Milan might have fumbled the bag, but there's no sleeping on Man City's keeper - the man was a human barricade. It's about time the Serie A clans, with Napoli and Lazio leading the charge, lick their wounds and come back swinging next season. Yet, the big dollar signs hanging over the Italian clubs, coupled with their stadium ambitions, are ticking time bombs that need defusing for sunnier days ahead.
