The treble has had a profound effect on fans, even prompting one to speak for the first time since falling into a coma
heo Michael Owen was celebrating his 21st birthday in May when he was involved in a life-changing car accident. With his neck broken in five places, the lifelong Manchester City fan spent four weeks in a coma in the Royal Preston hospital.
At the Etihad on Sunday, Man City supporters were some of the first to snap up new club shirts with “Champions of Europe” written in gold on the back above the number 23, marking the year it all happened. Fans swarmed Piccadilly Gardens in the centre of Manchester on Saturday night, bursting out of the city’s pubs in celebration of the win.
“He’s the man of the match by a country mile,” Pye said. “He won us the treble, as far as I’m concerned.”
