  • Riyad Mahrez has added another medal to his trophy cabinet
  • The Algerian forward was part of the Manchester City team that beat Manchester United to win the FA Cup
  • City are a trophy away from winning a historic treble

Algerian winger Riyal Mahrez had to borrow a popular phrase from American DJ and music producer, DJ Khaled, to share his excitement after adding the FA Cup to the Premier League title.

Manchester City beat rivals Manchester United 2-1 at Wembley to win their second trophy of the season.

The Citizens could secure the treble if they beat Inter Milan in the final of the UEFA Champions League next week.

Before the trip to Istanbul, the five-time Premier League winner took to social media to express his joy.

He wrote on Twitter: "Another one."

The phrase has become synonymous of American music mogul DJ Khaled, who most often uses it when he drops a new project.

Mahrez was an unused substitute as captain Ilkay Gundogan netted twice for Manchester City in the final of the Cup competition. His goals were sandwiched by a consolation from Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes, as reported by BBC.

The Algerian has been pivotal for City in the FA Cup, scoring a semi-final hat-trick as the Premier League champions dispatch returnees Sheffield United.

Mahrez reacts after winning EPL

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Algerian forward, Riyad Mahrez has shared his excitement after becoming the first African player to win the English Premier League five times.

The 32-year-old won the Premier League title again after Arsenal lost to Nottingham Forest, with this handing the trophy to Manchester City before they even stepped onto the pitch to play Chelsea.

Mahrez won his first English title with Leicester City in 2016, before adding four since moving to Manchester City.

Algerian winger Riyad Mahrez has become the African player with the most English Premier League titles after Manchester City were declared champions on Saturday, May 20, 2023.

The Citizens were crowned champions without even kicking the ball after Arsenal lost to Nottingham Forest at the City Grounds.

City's four points advantage over Arsenal with just a game remaining for the Gunners means the London club are mathematically out of the race.
