Manchester City fan enters press box to complain about pro-Liverpool bias after FA Cup final win
The City supporter directed a foul-mouted rant at journalists after the FA Cup final win
A Manchester City supporter entered the Wembley press box after the FA Cup final win over Watford on Saturday to complain about a pro-Liverpool bias in the media.
The City supporter said: “We've done the domestic f***ing Treble. No-one's ever done it before.
“But you'll all have Mo Salah on the back of the f***ing pages tomorrow... City! City! City!”
City may have won the final 6-0 but there was an unusually fractious atmosphere at Wembley which was compounded when Pep Guardiola objected to being asked for his thoughts on Uefa’s Financial Fair Play (FFP) investigation immediately after the match.
When asked if he has ever received payments from Manchester City's owners for services other than his managerial role, Guardiola vented his frustrations.

"Honestly, do you think I deserve to have this type of question happen, on the day we won the treble, if I received money from other situations?
"Are you accusing me? Oh man."
Talking generally on the FFP investigation into City, Guardiola added: "Well I said yesterday we are not guilty.
"I listen to my chairman, my CEO, they give me arguments, and I trust them.
"When they tell me we did absolutely follow the rules, I'm sorry, I believe them."
