Chelsea<\/a> is the culmination of City\u2019s rise since an Abu Dhabi takeover in 2008 transformed the club\u2019s fortunes.<\/p>\nMeanwhile, four years on from making Neymar and Kylian Mbappe the world\u2019s two most expensive players, PSG\u2019s wait for a first Champions League title goes on.<\/p>\n
Mbappe could only watch on from the stands due to a calf injury as, just like in last week\u2019s first leg, his side imploded after an excellent first-half performance.<\/p>\n
The visitors were left to rue huge missed chances by Marquinhos and Angel Di Maria in between Mahrez\u2019s strikes before Di Maria lashed out at Fernandinho to leave PSG down to 10 men for the final 20 minutes.<\/p>\n
City will set the seal on a fifth Premier League title in the past 10 years in the coming days as they remain on course for a treble, having already lifted the League Cup.<\/p>\n
But it has taken until their 10th consecutive season in the Champions League for Sheikh Mansour\u2019s investment to be rewarded by playing in the biggest game in club football.<\/p>\n
City boss Pep Guardiola has won the Champions League twice before as a coach during his time at Barcelona.<\/p>\n
However, the Catalan has also endured a decade of anguish in Europe\u2019s premier club competition since.<\/p>\n
Four times Guardiola has fallen at the semi-final stage with Barca and Bayern Munich since last lifting the trophy in 2011 on top of three quarter-final exits with City in the past three seasons.<\/p>\n
In many of those ties, the fine details and controversial decisions went against Guardiola\u2019s men despite dominating the match.<\/p>\n
This time it was a role reversal as City had to withstand a barrage from PSG before the break.<\/p>\n
The French champions thought they had an early penalty to get back in the tie when Oleksandr Zinchenko was penalised for handball.<\/p>\n
However, Dutch referee Bjorn Kuipers rightly reversed his initial decision on seeing a replay of the ball bouncing off the Ukrainian\u2019s shoulder.<\/p>\n
Zinchenko was heavily involved again when the opening goal arrived at the other end.<\/p>\n
He raced onto City goalkeeper Ederson\u2019s thunderous long pass into the PSG area. Zinchenko\u2019s cut-back found Kevin De Bruyne and after the Belgian\u2019s shot was blocked, Mahrez pounced to slot home on his weaker right foot.<\/p>\n
The tie was still far from over as PSG penned City back and should have been at least level on the night before half-time.<\/p>\n
Marquinhos has made a habit of scoring big Champions League goals and the Brazilian was inches away from another when his looping header came back off the crossbar.<\/p>\n
Ederson then nearly undid his good work as Di Maria intercepted his hurried throw to Bernardo Silva and flashed a shot inches wide with the Brazilian \u2018keeper stranded outside his goal.<\/p>\n
Mauricio Pochettino will wonder what could have been had Mbappe been fit with his replacement Icardi ineffective.<\/p>\n
Neymar only ever showed flashes of his brilliance with City\u2019s impressive defence led by Ruben Dias able to focus on stopping the Brazilian without Mbappe to worry about.<\/p>\n
City have now kept 31 clean sheets this season in a marked contrast to the defensive weakness that has previously cost them in this competition.<\/p>\n
Guardiola\u2019s men have always shown enough quality going forward and a clinical counter-attack killed off the tie on 63 minutes.<\/p>\n
De Bruyne freed Phil Foden down the left and his inch-perfect cross was blasted high past Keylor Navas by Mahrez.<\/p>\n
In a repeat of the first leg, PSG\u2019s discipline went with their hopes of reaching the final.<\/p>\n
Di Maria needlessly stamped on Fernandinho to be shown a straight red card before Marco Verratti was lucky to escape seeing a second yellow.<\/p>\n
Foden hit the post as City threatened to run riot in the closing stages.<\/p>\n
But they had already done enough to make history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
