Man City made history by becoming the first side ever to reach four consecutive FA Cup Finals, underlining their dominance in English football.
Pep Guardiola’s side secured their place in yet another final with a win over Southampton on Saturday, extending a remarkable run that now sets them apart from every team in the competition’s long history. No club had previously managed to appear in the showpiece event four seasons in a row.
As reported by Fabrizio Romano on X on Saturday, with this record, Guardiola will manage his 24th game at Wembley in 10 years as Man City coach.
Reacting to the feat, Guardiola said, “Man City never, never, ever, and in this country, and since the UK was born, no team has made four FA Cup finals in a row”. “Imagine next season, one team will be in four finals in a row – it’s extraordinary!” told BBC
The achievement highlights City’s consistency across domestic competitions, with their depth and quality continuing to deliver results even in the latter stages of demanding campaigns. Year after year, they have found a way to navigate the knockout rounds and maintain their presence at Wembley.
