The day is almost here as Manchester City get their shot at immortality in the Champions League final.

Victory would move the Spaniard alongside Carlo Ancelotti, Bob Paisley and Zinedine Zidane, while City aim to seal the treble.
Guardiola hails 'special' FA Cup win but wants UCL for true City recognition
Manchester City face Inter Milan in the Champions League final as they look to complete the treble.
Pep Guardiola’s side are back in the competition’s showpiece match looking to atone for their defeat to Chelsea in the final two years ago.
After being tipped as many people’s favourites from the onset, City will be desperate to become European champions for the first time and rank alongside the continent’s elite.
Victory on June 10 will be made even sweeter, given that an historic treble is at stake and a chance to emulate the achievement of Manchester United from 1999.
City’s relentless pressure on Arsenal eventually told to secure a third consecutive Premier League crown, while Man United were dispatched 2-1 to claim a domestic double.
Meanwhile, Inter head into the match as huge underdogs in what many will view as a free hit for Simone Inzaghi’s side.
A comprehensive 3-0 aggregate victory over city rivals AC Milan in the semi-finals will have served as a huge morale boost, and a third European Cup is not out of the question.
The Champions League final takes place at the Ataturk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul on June 10.

Guardiola to exorcise Champions League ghosts?
Pep Guardiola’s reputation as one of the world’s outstanding coaches is undoubtedly secure, but the 12-year wait since his last Champions League triumph has left a small blemish on his coaching CV.
The Spaniard has failed to win the trophy outside of Barcelona, with his last victory a fourth European Cup for the Catalan club in 2011.
A comprehensive 3-1 victory over Manchester United thanks to a goal each from Pedro, Lionel Messi and David Villa proved to be the crowning glory for that great Barca side.
After failing to get his hands on the trophy again during a three-year spell at Bayern Munich, this will feel like a chance for redemption for the Spaniard.
His near-miss in the final two years ago was a particularly tough pill to swallow, and a win in Turkey will undoubtedly be Guardiola’s pièce de resistance.
Inter to upset the odds?

'Whoever we end up with, we will be unlucky' - Inzaghi on UCL final opponent
Stranger things have happened, but Simone Inzaghi’s side will surely have to play out of their skins if they are to become champions of Europe for a fourth time.
The Nerazzurri last reached the final in 2010, as an Inter side led by Jose Mourinho overcame Bayern Munich with a 2-0 win thanks to Diego Milito’s brace.
The scale of the challenge is not lost on Inzaghi, but he believes that their derby win over AC Milan in the semi-finals will give his side optimism.
In quotes published by uefa.com, he said: "For us it was a dream but we have always believed in it. I'm proud to be here.
"Nobody has given us anything, we deserve everything that we have achieved. And now the dream to play the final has come true. It has been an extraordinary path and winning a derby in the semi-final brought particular satisfaction."
