Manchester City faced a stunning defeat in the FA Cup against Manchester United, ending their unbeaten streak that had lasted for 35 games. This was the second time they failed to win a major trophy under Pep Guardiola, after losing in the 2021 Champions League final against Chelsea.
This loss marked a significant blow to Manchester City’s confidence as they had been the holders of the FA Cup the previous season and were expected to defend their title. However, despite this setback, they remain one of the strongest teams in England and will continue to fight for success in all competitions.
Rodri, who played his 50th game for Manchester City this season, suffered his first defeat after winning 38 games and drawing 11. This loss also ended his impressive 74-game unbeaten streak across all competitions, dating back to February 2023 against Spurs.
On the other hand, Erling Haaland struggled to score at Wembley Stadium, failing to convert any of his four chances into goals despite taking six shots. These key stats highlight the challenges and accomplishments that Manchester City faced throughout the match. Despite not winning this year’s FA Cup trophy, they have proven themselves as a formidable force in English football and will continue to be contenders for future titles.
