“To win a final is always special. Every trophy is special. This group deserves it. We played really well, second half was amazing and we deserved to lift another trophy.
“Obviously we know how we want to play the kick off and we aim to do that, to go long for Erling and try to get a second ball. It just placed amazingly for me and I just had to hit it. Obviously it was a quite good strike.”
Gundogan, who has since been a target of almost champions Arsenal, said concerning his future that he would wait and see how things pan out at the end.
“I don’t need these kind of days to feel appreciated and feel special in this club. I know that and that is why I have been here seven years. Nothing is decided yet, we will see what will happen.”
Man City next face Italian giants Inter Milan in the Champions League final with a a chance to win a treble this season on the cards.
