Man City secured their spot in the FA Cup final for the second year in a row with a thrilling win over Wembley. Bernardo Silva's late goal sealed the deal in a hard-fought semi-final match.
The victory was especially impressive considering the tough loss they suffered in the Champions League just days before.
Despite the disappointment of a penalty shootout defeat to Real Madrid, Pep Guardiola praised his players for their resilience in bouncing back swiftly to secure a significant win.
He said: "The game was tight. Chelsea had incredible transitions and controlled the ball well. We lost some easy balls because we were tired. Players made an incredible effort."
"What they have done today was one of the greatest things I have seen in a group of players [after] 120 minutes against Madrid, [with their] physicality and the emotion."
"The day after recovery then yesterday, we just say ‘hi’ and you can’t prepare anything."
