Man City secures spot in Champions final

Riyad Mahrez struck twice as Manchester City reached the Champions League final for the first time thanks to a 2-0 victory over Paris St. Germain at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday that secured a 4-1 aggregate win. City will now face the winner of today's semifinal, second leg between Chelsea and Real Madrid in the May 29 final in Istanbul. Leading 2-1 from the first leg, City eased their nerves when Algerian winger Mahrez scored in the 11th minute after latching on to a blocked shot from Kevin De Bruyne. PSG badly missed their injured striker Kylian Mbappe who, suffering a calf injury, was forced to watch the game from the stand as a substitute. Pep Guardiola's side doubled their lead in the 63rd minute with a classic counterattack, as Phil Foden burst down the left and, after a quick exchange of passes with De Bruyne, picked out Mahrez at the back post who slotted in from close range.
