To motivate Manchester City players, what the owner did in the Champions League final

Manchester City is facing an important date with its history in the UEFA Champions League final. The English team has established itself in a great way in the competition and a big part of that is the important work done by players and coaching staff. But now, they need to seal that effort with a win in the biggest game in the club's history.

The English team is close to winning its first UEFA Champions League and to do so, it must overcome a tough Inter Milan squad. The team has established itself in a great way in the tournament and its defense could complicate the citizens' attacks and Pep Guardiola's approach.

However, Manchester City's owner gives his team a pleasant surprise hours before the match. Sheikh Mansour will be present at the match after multiple reports that he would not be able to attend due to scheduling problems.

For Pep Guardiola and his players, having the head of the English institution in the stands of the Istanbul stadium is a great motivation, which will force them to give their all in front of the man who has managed this project over the years and who, at last, can taste European glory.

Was the owner of Manchester City planning not to attend the match?

The reality is that because of his role in his home country, Mansour bin Zayed's schedule is very complex. In fact, the sheikh has not attended a match of this magnitude live since 2010. This time it was the coronation of the English team in the Premier League.
