I particularly like the “who are you?” looks on the players faces right at the end as they break from their huddle. That complete surprise and then sudden realisation that half the crowd is coming on.

I’ve only just stopped being annoyed with Nasri for letting that ball run out for a throwevery time I see that I still think we are gonna run out of time!

Brilliant day, although the fa cup win came the season before to break our drought nothing and I mean nothing sports wise for a City fan who spent decades dreaming could ever come anywhere near the outburst of emotions in 117 and the rest of the ground that day.

Best football match I've ever attended!
This just popped up on my Facebook account. It still doesn't feel real,
from the empty atmosphere sound at the Etihad at the beginning of the clip, it felt so so flat with 90 minutes on the clock
to just about the most amazing unbelievable feeling any City will ever feel
Wow. Just wow. What an historic moment we created yet again. The most significant ending to a PL ever & to make it even more memorable- we deprived the rags who thought they’d won it.
It was a stressful match to watch & we were on our feet most of the game. But it will be remembered more than any other game (apart from Istanbul maybe )
Dreams are made of this.

What if Sergio had gone down and we were all sat there waiting for Mario to take the penalty.You couldn't have written it any better. For the rags to be celebrating and think they had won it made it all the more sweeter, but it was fucking awful at the time until Agueroooo did his magic.
So many little sub plots. Things you look back on and wonder what might have happened if things had have been different. What if QPR didn't find out they were safe? What if Nasri realised it would be a QPR throw and kept the ball in?
Nothing will ever beat that moment.

Dzeko's goal reminds me of Horlock's at Wembley. At the time I thought it was too little too late and then another goal came and it was momentous. Great memories.Still brings a tear to my eyes watching that

Mario world probably have chosen that moment to try a Panenka :-(What if Sergio had gone down and we were all sat there waiting for Mario to take the penalty.
Mario would have swivelled and back heeled it.Mario world probably have chosen that moment to try a Panenka :-(
And cue the tears in 5…4…3…
The best vid made of that day.
It just brings it all back, WOW, the hairs standing up moment watching that
The greatest ‘high’ I’ve ever experienced; and it came from such a lowest of the lows.
1 million % proper Manchester City DRAMA, we really are special
every time I see that I still think we are gonna run out of time!
Yep
things like the Mario header from the corner, you could feel the pain, it was not going to end well or we thought that was the last chance, everything changed in those 5 minutes, life after that would never be the same

Also, the many City connections at QPR, 3 players and the manager and the coaching staff

Another weird symmetry that season was that we had also scored late to win the corresponding fixture at Loftus Road, which similarly ended 2-3.
