Virat and Anushka to attend Wembley showdown
Virat and Anushka will attend the FA Cup final as Puma invited the pair to be part of the historic clash at Wembley. The oldest football competition in the world will see giants of the game Manchester United play against rivals Manchester City for the first time in the final. Virat is not new to football as he was previously seen attending the Tottenham training session where he met England football team captain Harry Kane. Virat has also attended Wimbledon Championships in the past whenever he has been in London.
Virat landed in England after the conclusion of the Indian Premier League (IPL) season where his side finished fifth and failed to make the playoffs. Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) lost in a must-win contest against Gujarat Titans in their final league game and thus faced elimination.
The former India captain has been preparing for the all-important final on the South Coast of England in Sussex along with the rest of the team. He will make the short journey to North London on Saturday and will witness a historic clash as Manchester City chase a treble.
A win in both competitions will see them win a unique treble of PL, FA Cup, and Champions League for just the second time in the history of English football. Interestingly, the only other team to win the unique treble is City’s Saturday opponents Manchester United back in 1999.
