FinishedSpurs miss out on the Europa Conference League and we leave you with City's celebrations. Thanks very much for joining us and see you again soon!

FinishedSon is in tears, City's player celebrates and Foden and another City footballer went over to console another Spurs man. Quality gesture.
-
94'FT: Man C 1-0 Tottenham!! All over at Wembley!! Man City are fully deserved winners thanks to Laporte's 82nd minute header. The Sky Blues dominated the contest, especially in the first half, and they had several chances to score. Spurs had Dier, Alderweireld and Lloris to thank for the fact it was only 1-0. Apart from a Lo Celso effort at the start of the 2nd half, they never looked like scoring.
