23-1 City win first trophy of new era
Manchester City capped one of the finest weeks in the club's history with a 1-0 FA Cup Final win today.
Yaya Toure was the hero - as has been the case so many times this season - with the lone goal of the game, striking home in the area on 74 minutes.
That rewarded Betfair customers willing to take an In-Play high of [3.8] about a City win in 90 minutes.
And it will have delighted punters who backed City at a high of [24.0] on Betfair's FA Cup winner market when they trailed Notts County with just 10 minutes remaining of their fourth round tie back on January 30.
In an attritional game it was a scrappy goal that split the two clubs, Toure seizing on a spot of penalty area ping-pong to smash past Thomas Sorensen.
Earlier this week City beat Spurs 1-0 to seal their participation in the Champions League (qualifying stages at least) next season.
