'Very angry' - Man City star Ilkay Gundogan names Liverpool game he will refuse to watch

Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan has admitted he has no plans to watch the upcoming Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid and gets 'very angry' each time he thinks about the showpiece fixture in Paris.

Pep Guardiola's side were moments away from setting up an all-English final with the Reds only to implode in the dying embers of their semi-final second leg with Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu. A Rodrygo injury-time saw City squander their two-goal advantage in disastrous fashion before Karim Benzema's penalty in extra-time completed an unthinkable turnaround.

This heartbreaking exit ensured the Etihad outfit's wait for success in Europe's elite competition will go on for at least another year. Liverpool, meanwhile, will look to clinch a seventh European Cup when taking on Madrid on May 28. But Gundogan has made clear he will make alternative plans for the fixture as he looks to process the damaging defeat suffered in the Spanish capital.
