    Great to see a football team celebrating a trophy with their fans at long last!

    Spurs were spanked. Manchester City were so dominant, in that first half especially.

    Is this the first of three trophies this season?

    Tony: You can always have 'Gareth fails to bail Spurs out' Dave.

    Dax: As a Spurs fan, that was a painful 93 minutes to watch. Painful.

    Riyad Mahrez thinks he's sealed the win with a tap-in, but Phil Foden was offside in the build-up.

    That should be that...

    Into the final minute.

    Manchester City look like they're going to do this. Spurs just can't get hold of the ball.

    Rhys: Regardless of who scored, City have absolutely dominated spurs who have looked championship level at best.

    Man City 1-0 Tottenham

    City are holding firm at the back and if anything look the more likely to score.

    The frustration is creeping in for Spurs, and Moussa Sissoko concedes a free-kick for a rash challenge near the halfway line.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 90 mins

    Man City 1-0 Tottenham

    Steven Bergwijn comes on for Spurs, in place of Serge Aurier.

    Ryan Mason's side have to throw everything at this now.

    Three minutes of injury time to come!

    It's City on the attack as time ticks away for Spurs.

    They're dominating possession and Tottenham are struggling to get hold of the ball to create one final chance.

    Spurs are giving this a go, but Zack Steffen is taking no chances with a ball into the box and boots it into the Spurs half. No messing around now.

    Anon: Really hope David (18:03) gets to use his pun, would be a shame for it to be wasted. Come on Gareth, there's a lot riding on this

    Three minutes of normal time remain...

    Bernardo Silva replaces Kevin de Bruyne for the final few minutes - unless Spurs can find a late, late equaliser at Wembley.

    We're in for a frantic finale.

    You can't say they don't deserve it. The ball is delicious from Kevin de Bruyne. And Laporte leaps and glances the ball beautifully. No chance for Lloris.

    Had Stones been fit, Laporte wouldn't have even started. As it is, he's almost won the cup final.

    Frank: About time, Laporte! And at the death too!!

    Chris: Laporte shouldn't be on the pitch! One nil to the ref. Chris

  17. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 84 mins

    Pep Guardiola does now bring on Rodri, in place of Fernandinho.

    Spurs also make a change, as Dele Alli is introduced for Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.

    Breakthrough!

    It's Aymeric Laporte, who was perhaps fortunate to remain on the pitch in the first half, who meets Kevin de Bruyne's free-kick with a header that nestles into the corner of the Tottenham goal.

    What have Spurs got in response here?

    Raheem Sterling earns a free-kick for Manchester City out on the left.

    It's actually Rodri who looks ready to come on...
