| Yaya Toure scored the only goal of the final |
Manchester City won their first major trophy in 35 years this weekend when they defeated Stoke City 1-0 at Wembley Stadium. It was Yaya Toure who scored the only goal of the match, punishing a poor Stoke side which only created one notable chance. Manchester City on the other hand were more adventurous, creating chances while defending well. I wasn't able to watch much of the match, but seeing as many people liked the compilation of the "
Best Images of Real Madrid's Copa del Rey win over Barcelona", I've decided to make another one for Manchester City.
I hope you enjoy these pictures, and I'll get back to writing proper posts soon.

| The ball bounced around in Stoke's box after Balotelli and David Silva combined... |
 |
| then it fell to Yaya, who blasted it with his left foot past Sorensen. |
 |
| The Stoke keeper had no chance of saving the rocket shot. |
 |
| The goal came in the 75th minute... |
 |
| and the Ivorian ran off celebrating... |
 |
| with speedy substitute Adam Johnson. |
 |
| The rest of the team eventually caught up and dog-piled the goalscorer... |
 |
| right in front of the happy Manchester City fans. |
 |
| At the end of the match, Mario Balotelli was awarded the Man of the Match award. |
 |
| Carlos Tevez lifted the FA Cup. |
 |
| And Vincent Kompany celebrated with a giant banana (WTF?!) as the team showered in champagne. |
 |
| Edin Dzeko, Yaya Toure, Gareth Barry, and picture-snapping Joleon Lescott all smile with the historic cup. |
 |
| Tevez then puts a piece of the famous trophy on his head as a hat. |
 |
| Roberto Mancini says that it was a victory for the fans, and it certainly was. |
 |
| Joe Hart celebrated alone, not a surprise as he decided to cover himself in ribbons. |
