Kevin De Bruyne Seeks Fitting Man City Farewell In FA Cup Final

Kevin De Bruyne can add another honour to his haul as Manchester City's most decorated player of all time with a fitting farewell in Saturday's FA Cup final against Crystal Palace. The Belgian's trophy-littered decade in Manchester will come to an end at the conclusion of the Premier League season. But Wembley's showpiece is the 33-year-old's final chance to lift silverware at the club where he grew into one of world's best players. A six-time Premier League winner, De Bruyne could add a third FA Cup to his five League Cups and 2023 Champions League win with City.

De Bruyne seeks fitting Man City farewell in FA Cup final

MANCHESTER: Kevin De Bruyne can add another honor to his haul as Manchester City’s most decorated player of all time with a fitting farewell in Saturday’s FA Cup final against Crystal Palace. The Belgian’s trophy-littered decade in Manchester will come to an end at the conclusion of the Premier League season. But Wembley’s showpiece is the 33-year-old’s final chance to lift silverware at the club where he grew into one of world’s best players. A six-time Premier League winner, De Bruyne could add a third FA Cup to his five League Cups and 2023 Champions League win with City. He has expressed his “surprise” that City did not seek to extend his stay, filled with the belief that he can still perform at the highest level. De Bruyne rolled back the years when City rallied from 2-0 down to thrash Palace 5-2 just last month with a goal and an assist. City will be hoping for more of the same to give him a fitting farewell and save some face from a season to forget for Pep Guardiola’s men. After an unprecedented run of four consecutive Premier League titles, City are 18 points adrift of champions Liverpool and embroiled in a battle just to finish in the top five to secure a place in next season’s Champions League. De Bruyne’s decline has played a factor in City’s downturn. Of his 108 goals and 177 assists for the club in 419 appearances, only six and eight respectively have come this season.

Real Madrid Delay Barcelona Celebrations With Late Win Over Mallorca

Real Madrid snatched a last-gasp 2-1 win over Real Mallorca on Wednesday to delay Barcelona's title celebrations. Los Blancos cut the gap on the Catalan giants to four points ahead of Barcelona's visit to neighbours Espanyol on Thursday, where they can wrap up the title with a victory. Trailing for much of the game after Martin Valjent's 11th-minute opener, two second-half goals for Madrid ensured their arch-rivals did not claim their 28th La Liga title just yet. Madrid needed to win to deny Barca and Kylian Mbappe's equaliser and Jacobo Ramon's 95th-minute strike allowed them to do just that.
