“Manchester United are just below the quality of Wrexham. Manchester is blue and forever will be,” one fan highlighted how poor United was. A City fan thinks, “It’s all about Manchester City. United are a thing of the past.” Here are a few more reactions from the fans:

“Should have sat at the better end of the stadium.” 

“Wrong team Ryan. Manchester is blue.” 

“You got the wrong side of Manchester, dude.”

City started a game incredibly, as Ilkay Gundogan scored in the 12th second. It became the fastest-ever goal scored in the FA Cup final. United pulled one back from the penalty spot. But the second-half strike from Gundogan was enough to take City one step closer to the European treble and become the second English team to do so.
