Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, said it was written in stars the English side would beat Inter Milan to win the 2022/23 Champions League title.
Spanish midfielder, Rodrigo, scored a powerful goal eight minutes after the hour mark to secure a 1-0 win for the Cityzens at Ataturk Olympic Stadium in Turkey.
The narrow win completed the treble for Guardiola and his charges, making them just the second team from England to win three trophies in a season, equaling Manchester United’s record.
Reacting to the win, Catalan Guardiola, who won the Champions League on two previous occasions with Barcelona, admitted it didn’t come easy as Inter Milan put up a great resistance many didn’t see coming.
“Tired. Calm. Satisfied. It’s so difficult to win it,” he said after the game.
“They are really good. Be patient, I said at half-time. You have to be lucky. Ederson or they miss it, they could draw. This competition is a coin.
“It was written in the stars. It belongs to us.
“We weren’t at our best level. After the World Cup the team made a step forward and we were there. It wasn’t our best performance.
“I don’t have any energy to think about next season, it’s impossible. We need a break, it’s too long.
“Our players have international games now. Uefa and Fifa, think about it. The Premier League finished two or three weeks ago, now people have to come back. It’s too much. We will start from zero next season.
“We’re going to celebrate in the hotel with family and friends. Monday the parade is in Manchester. With this competition, the treble is so difficult.”
