  • Manchester City stars were on cloud nine as they celebrated their Champions League triumph on Saturday night
  • Jack Grealish led the celebrations, which spilt over a nightclub, with the Englishman spotted downing a few cans of booze
  • City silenced Inter Milan in the final of the tournament to complete a historic treble

Saturday night, June 10, afforded Manchester City a historic moment as the Premier League club conquered Europe for the first time.

Despite their incredible success in recent years, City had been unable to taste European glory.

While they came close to securing the Champions League in 2021, they went on to lose the crown to Premier League rivals Chelsea in the final.

In 2022, they could not go beyond the quarters as they were eliminated by eventual winners Real Madrid in the last eight.

However, luck was evidently on their side this season as they stunned Inter Milan in Istanbul to cart home the prestigious title.

According to The Independent, Rodri's solitary goal in the second half of the match was enough to earn City the much-coveted title.

Inside Man City's title celebration

The Daily Star reports City's Champions League triumph called for a moment of celebration from the players, with Jack Grealish leading the way.

Behind the scenes photos from the celebrations have since emerged after they were shared on social media by players.

Grealish, who led his teammates, friends and family to a nightclub, was caught on camera downing a few cans of booze.

On his part, Erling Haaland toasted his fine season with a cigar, with Kevin De Bruyne, who hobbled off with an injury in the first half, joining his teammates for celebration.

And when the merrymaking session was over, Guardiola's charges began to take photos with the Champions League trophy.

Inter legend misses Istanbul trip

Earlier, Sports Brief reported Inter Milan cult hero Adriano missed the chance to cover the Champions League final in Istanbul because he was partying, according to stunning reports.

Adriano is a familiar name among Inter fans, as the Brazilian had some memorable moments as a Nerazzuri in the early 2000s.

Because of his legendary status at Inter, it only made sense that he was invited to be a pundit for the final, where his former side came up against Manchester City on Saturday, June 10.
