Manchester City reached their first Champions League final as they beat PSG 2-0 on the night and 4-1 on aggregate
(Footage from BT Sport on YouTube)
This is the first time City have reached the final of the Champions League/European Cup. It is also Guardiola's first as a manager since his Barcelona side played Manchester United in 2011.
On the night, it was a goal in each half from Riyad Mahrez that sealed City's progress. PSG did have their chances but the comeback was never really on.
The away side even had to finish the match with 10 man after former Manchester United player Angel di Maria was sent off.

This should be the start of a glorious few days for the club. A win on Sunday against Chelsea would clinch their third Premier League title in four years.

PEP 💬 My first word is for the players who didn’t play today. I am so sorry for them because they have been fantastic all season and I know how tough it is not to play. The second word is for our owner and chairman in Abu Dhabi and all the people in other departments. pic.twitter.com/TwaeCEJDAk

An all Manchester UEFA Super Cup?
It could be an historic month for Manchester's top clubs. Manchester United are currently favourites to win the Europa League. Should both Manchester clubs succeed, we are on course for an all Manchester UEFA Super Cup in August.
This will take place in Belfast on August 11th.
