It was the third final of the UEFA Champions League, where English football clubs meet. Manchester United and Chelsea played in the former in 2008, and Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur in London met in the 2019 final.
Manchester City played for the first time in the final of the Old Continent’s elite club football tournament, and London’s Chelsea made it to the Champions League final for the third time.
In 2008, the aristocrats fought Manchester United in the Champions League final, but had to admit the advantage of their opponents after a series of penalties. However, in 2012, also after the penalty shootout, Chelsea beat Bayern Munich in the final and won the most important European club football trophy.
This time there was no need for a series of penalties. In a defensive game, the Chelsea players closed the Man City attack with iron shackles, seizing one of the rare opportunities and achieving the most important victory of the season.

The only goal fell 42 minutes. London defender Germany When Havertz received a pass from his excellent teammate Mason Mountain, he ran away from the defenders’ defenders and defeated Ederson to send the ball into the Man City goal.
In the second half, Pep Guardiola’s players maintained control of the ball for a long time, but the Chelsea team, which formed powerful defensive downs, did not provide a more serious opportunity to score.
Probably closest to the goal in the sixth minute of added time was Man City midfielder Riyad Mahrez, but his shot was a bit off the mark.
Man City became the champion of England this season and won the Football League Cup. At that time, he finished fourth in the London Chelsea Championship and landed in the English Football Association Cup final for Leicester City.
