The Wembley showpiece burst into life in record fashion as Ilkay Gundogan fired City ahead after just 13 SECONDS.
That was the fastest-ever goal scored in FA Cup Final history.
But after starting on cloud nine, City fans were furious around 13 minutes later after their defender was caught by United’s Casemiro.
Akanji was caught on the inside of his ankle by the Brazilian and was left rolling in agony.
The incident then went to VAR for a review – but the officials deemed that Casemiro’s tackle was not worthy of any booking.
