However, their hopes of a domestic double were dashed when Manchester United defeated them 2-1 in the FA Cup final. The new season saw City start strongly, beating Manchester United on penalties in the Community Shield, but they soon faced a 13-game unbeaten run being ended by Tottenham in the League Cup last-16.
Injuries took a significant toll on the team, leading to a poor run of form where City won just once in 13 games. They ended the year on a positive note, however, with a 2-0 win over Leicester City in Pep Guardiola's 500th game as manager.
