The altercation between Pep Guardiola and Dean Henderson has been made public.
Crystal Palace defeated Manchester City 1-0 in the final of the English FA Cup in 2024-25 season at Wembley Stadium in London, England, at 12:30 a.m. on Wednesday. With the victory, Palace lifted the trophy for the first time in 120 years.
It started off in a good mood. In the 16th minute of the first half, Palace took the lead when Eberechi Eze finished off a cross by Daniel Munoz with his right foot. Manchester City, which was in a hurry, then launched a full offensive, but succeeded in blocking it by displaying concentration on defense.
In particular, the team faced a crisis when it allowed a penalty kick (PK) in the 36th minute of the first half. However, as Omar Marmoussi missed the match, the morale rose. Manchester City continued its wave of attacks based on overwhelming possession in the second half, but ended the game without losing a point under Henderson's strong defense.
Manchester City is disappointed. Manchester City failed to secure victory despite leading the game. In fact, Manchester City far outperformed Palace in most indicators, including market share (78 percent-22%) and shooting number (23-7). However, soccer is a sport in which goals determine the outcome. In the end, Manchester City fell victim to the Underdog rebellion.
Meanwhile, a strange scene was created after the whistle. Guardiola and Henderson had an argument. As Henderson approached Guardiola, a brief war of words broke out between the two, and Guardiola even pointed a finger at Henderson.
Henderson then revealed the information in an interview with ITV after the match. "I just went to ask for a handshake. Guardiola got angry all of a sudden. He said, "I think we purposely dragged our feet in the extra time."
"So I said to Guardiola, 'You've got 10 minutes you want extra time.' But that doesn't mean I have bad feelings for him." 온라인바카라
Guardiola, on the other hand, has made no comment on this. However, he praised his players for their performance. "We had a better performance than the April match against Palace, which won 5-2," he said. "We had a much better performance than the FA Cup final against Manchester United (lost 1-2) last season."
