Pep Guardiola and Kevin De Bruyne had a touching exchange after Man City won the Champions League
Manchester City fans enjoyed the emotional exchange between Pep Guardiola and Kevin De Bruyne after their Champions League win.
The Blues finally won the Champions League after beating Inter Milan 1-0 in Istanbul earlier this month.
Guardiola's mission has been to lift the prestigious trophy since joining the club in 2016, after experiencing pain in 2021 when his side lost to Chelsea.
But he finally got his hands on the trophy after the team's win over Inter and it turned out to be an emotional journey.

That was judged by the 52-year-old's interaction with star midfielder De Bruyne after the final whistle, which was captured by Man City's official. The Belgium international thanked Guardiola, who said:
"We did it. We did it. We did it. Seven years of fighting, we made it. We did it, Kev! Now we've done it!"

One Twitter user wrote:
"The shaky voice from Pep and their long hug was touching."
A second tweet:
"I wish we could tie them to the city forever."
The third added:
"Simply amazing. We actually had a heart attack in Europe and the two of them made it through. A certain feeling of finally getting over it."
The fourth said:
"These two are the foundation of Man City...when they leave, it's over."

"I love Pep so much, the man has a passionate coach who really cares about him and shows his emotions."
This is Guardiola's third time winning the Champions League as a coach, after winning it twice during his time at Barcelona. But it was the first time De Bruyne had won in his illustrious career.
