On May 26, Jack Grealish’s incident, the rain and the defeat in the FA Cup final made Man City’s parade to celebrate the Premier League championship less complete.
Thousands of Man City fans poured into the streets early. However, the heavy rain prevented many people from having the best experience. |
According to Daily Mail , the bus carrying the entire Man City team marched through the city’s streets, starting from the National Football Museum at 7:30 p.m. before passing through Exchange Square and ending outside the Hilton hotel around approx. 9pm. |
Man City’s parade coincided with the time when the city held the Great Manchester Run with more than 25,000 participants, including many famous runners, according to BBC. This causes the police force and security team to work hard to ensure the safety of everyone. |
Jack Grealish continues to become the center of attention. Last season, he had a grand celebration with alcohol when Man City won a historic treble. This time, he almost had a disaster during the parade. |
Because he was engrossed in dancing with his hands raised in the air, while the bus suddenly rolled, the former Aston Villa star lost his balance and almost fell onto the street. This happened twice to Grealish. |
Man City’s celebration was also somewhat less grand because the home team lost to MU in the FA Cup final the day before. “The Citizens” was considered comprehensively stronger but played an underpowered match, thereby losing to their great rival with a score of 1-2. |
Ignoring the unfortunate incidents, Pep Guardiola and his students still seemed comfortable when the parade took place. Guardiola said: “This season has been wonderful and the journey has been really good. The team has played in extraordinary form, not losing a single match in the Champions League (lost to Real Madrid in the quarter-finals after a penalty shootout). – Reporter). We will come back with the best version possible.” |
However, it seems like Guardiola’s time at Etihad Stadium is gradually coming to an end. British media said Guardiola plans to leave Man City in the summer of 2025, after his current contract expires. |
This season, Man City set a record of becoming the Premier League champion for the fourth consecutive time, something even Sir Alex Ferguson could not do with Man Utd at his peak. |
In the last 7 seasons, Man City lifted the trophy 6 times. Only Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool can stop the power of Pep Guardiola’s teachers and students in the 2019/20 season. |
