On This Day 6th May 2019:"No Vinny,Don't Shoot"

Edited:

It was one of those ‘I was there’ moments on a night of almost unbearable tension at the Etihad.

Vincent Kompany’s stunning long-range goal was enough to put City within one win of the Premier League title.

The captain broke down a dangerous and stubborn Leicester with a shot on 73 minutes to put the Blues within touching distance of defending the crown won in a canter the season before.

Right behind that at the back of 115. Genuinely one of the best moments I've seen at City over the last few years and there's been a lot.

When I woke up earlier, realised the date and immediately thought Vinny Leicester day. Spurs are on my mind ATM and guess was thinking about difficult penultimate matches.
We could do with a Vinny star match winner May 14th I reckon!

I could watch that goal 20 times a day without getting bored.

I was down with the young lad for this one, very back of the ES3 and I also uttered words to the effect of ‘don’t shoot’ (had a good laugh with the Blue next to me afterwards!)

These are special moments which you will never forget, so rare to have something that elicits such a heart-felt and gutteral reaction from 50k people. Absolute bedlam when that went in. Goosebumps thinking about it now.

What a man Vinny is, hope he bounces back from this season’s setback.
