In the latest instalment of #City30, presented by Nexen, we asked you - the fans - for your favourite Wembley trip of the Pep Guardiola and Nick Cushing eras.
DAVID SILVA | Made in Gran Canaria
CITY+ | Free to Cityzens until football resumes
Unsurprisingly, there was only one winner...
Also voted as the best Cup Final performance, our 6-0 FA Cup Final triumph over Watford took the acclaim as the most memorable trip to the national stadium of recent years...
And what a day it was!

Even with City in such scintillating form, boasting an excellent record against the Hornets and with the Premier League, Carabao Cup and Community Shield already clinched in such remarkable fashion, few could have predicted what would unfold at Wembley Stadium on the afternoon of Saturday 18 May 2019.
On the back of our superb domestic treble, the City fans were absolutely loving life as a Blue but the manner of victory still presented a welcome (and very much enjoyed) surprise!
From the moment David Silva struck the opener on 25 minutes, the Champions simply never looked like relinquishing the lead and produced a truly fantastic performance to clinch our sixth FA Cup success with a sensational six-goal thrashing!
Needless to say, every goal was savoured and celebrated in style. The Blue half of Wembley couldn’t believe their eyes, especially in the second half when Guardiola‘s men simply steamrolled the Hornets, threatening with every single attack.
After Gabriel Jesus had doubled the advantage, Kevin De Bruyne made it three - virtually walking the ball into the net! - and by the time Raheem Sterling chipped in with a late double, the City faithful were in dreamland!
City were absolutely phenomenal. Ruthless, clinical, captivating.
It really was the stuff of dreams and in truth, it could well have been ten...!
