A historic record for Manchester City after reaching the final

Manchester City wrote a new chapter in their football history by becoming the first team to reach the FA Cup final four times in a row, following their thrilling 2-1 victory over Southampton in the semi-final at Wembley Stadium . The Sky Blues continue their dominance of the competition, having won the title in the 2022/23 season before finishing as runners-up in the following two editions, thus securing their place in the final again for the 2025/26 season . The match was intense from the outset, with Southampton surprising their opponents with an early goal in their first appearance at Wembley since the play-off final in the 2023/24 season, capitalizing on their strong start against a Premier League powerhouse . However, Manchester City quickly regained their composure, equalizing through Jérémy Doku, before Nico González scored the winning goal, leading his team to a 2-1 comeback victory and ending Southampton's long unbeaten run that had stretched back to January . With this victory, City continues its pursuit of another domestic double, while the dream of a domestic treble remains alive this season . In the final, they await the winner of the Chelsea vs. Leeds United match, a highly anticipated clash that could further cement City's dominance of English football in recent years.
