It would be an understatement to say that Manchester City's season was disappointing. It was affected by injuries, strange team choices and lack of quality in the city performance. But maybe the 1 Nal who beat Crystal Palace in the FA Cup yesterday was the perfect package for Manchester City's season. Pep Guardiola's team performed well and could win the game yesterday, but that's not the case. That's the story of Manchester City's 24/25 season.

Manchester City had a chance yesterday, but that wasn't the case.

Manchester City had a chance to beat Crystal Palace yesterday. But they were thwarted by an inspired Dean Henderson in the palace goal. We've seen this in Manchester City performances this season. They dominated a game but didn't seize the opportunity. Crystal Palace made its first attack through Eberechi Eze in the 16th minute yesterday. This also happens on many occasions this season. Pep Guardiola's team failed to take the initiative in yesterday's FA Cup. This has come at a price many times throughout the 24/25 season.

There were too few yesterday. Savigno worked on the right wing. It can be said that he was the most dangerous offensive weapon in the city before being replaced. Kevin de Bruyne knocked himself down in Manchester City's final Cup final. But he was unable to inspire his team that day. What could Claudio Echeverri offer to Pep Guardiola's team yesterday. But Dean Henderson was rejected by Dean Henderson several times. So despite the hopefulness of Echeverri's cameo, ultimately, it could be everything taken away from yesterday's failure against Manchester City.

The first half summarized Manchester City's season at Wembley's moment.

But if there is a moment that perfectly encapsulates Manchester City's season. It was Omar Marmoush to see the first half penalty saved by Dean Henderson. But the moment that led to Manchester City's season summary. Erling Haaland punished Omar Marmoush, an unexpected sight. This moment seemed to be made for Hailan. But he passed it on and Mamothy saw Dean Henderson's fine. Hailan scored 30 goals this season, but he missed the penalty and wasted opportunities this season. Maybe playing his mind at Wembley. But this decision did stand out from yesterday’s competition.

Speaking about Erling Haaland's decision not to accept a penalty yesterday, Pep Guardiola was surprised that Haaland did not compete in the first half. In ESPN's quotes, the city manager said: "They decided to be on the court. I have no idea. I didn't talk to them. I thought he (Haaland) wanted to accept it. These are their stuff. The moment of free kick, the punishment, it is feeling and feeling. They think Omar is ready to accept it. Henderson made a great save. ”

Yesterday's FA Cup final defeat was the perfect package for Manchester City's season. It has everything that defines the city's 24/25 campaign. Missed opportunities, strange team choices, and yesterday's matches are more defined. Crystal Palace seized the opportunity and made history in the process. But coming out of the game, this is a lost opportunity for Manchester City. That's the entire 24/25 season for Pep Guardiola.
