First, MU ended Man City’s 35-match unbeaten streak in all competitions. The Blues Man has been unbeaten since losing 0-1 to Aston Villa in the Premier League in early December last year. It should be added that although they lost to Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the Champions League, that was when Man City collapsed in the penalty shootout, instead of during the official match time.

Second, this victory also helped M.U end midfielder Rodri’s streak of 74 consecutive unbeaten matches. According to statistics from Squawka, for the first time after 475 days and 74 matches, Rodri lost a match in a Man City shirt.

MU has lost 25 matches in all competitions since Rodri last tasted defeat. However, the Spanish midfielder has lost more matches against MU than any other team in his career (6 times).

In addition, MU coach Erik ten Hag also became the first coach to win the domestic cup final against Pep Guardiola’s Man City. The Dutch coach now has as many FA Cup titles as Jurgen Klopp and Mikel Arteta.

Overall, MU had a sweet victory against Man City. They avenged the hatred of losing to a club from the same city in last season’s FA final, as well as avoiding an empty-handed outcome this season.
