Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>Manchester City skipper Ilkay Gundogan on Saturday rallied his team to 2023 Football Association (FA) Cup glory.<\/p>\n

Ilkay scored twice in the final against Manchester United to lead his team to a 2-1 victory at London\u2019s Wembley Stadium.<\/p>\n

Gundogan drew first blood early on with his screamer in the 12th second of the game.<\/p>\n

After Bruno Fernandes leveled the score in the 33rd minute with a penalty goal, given by a Video Assistant Referee (VAR) decision, Ilkay took center stage once more.<\/p>\n

The German-born midfielder with Turkish roots made good use of the assist of Kevin De Bruyne and scored once more with a left-footed long strike in the 51st minute.<\/p>\n

With this victory, the Citizens stayed on track for a possible “Famous Treble” \u2013 winning the domestic title, domestic cup, and European cup in the same season.<\/p>\n

Next Saturday they will take on Italian Serie A club Inter Milan in the 2023 UEFA Champions League final at Istanbul Ataturk Olympic Stadium to complete the treble.<\/p>\n

Man City captured the cup for the seventh time as well as achieved FA Cup glory for the first time in four seasons.<\/p>\n
