The Manchester City team bus pulled into Wembley about forty minutes after Wigan's.
It wasn't their first rodeo, but the fanfare that met them outside the stadium made what they'd already done before feel new each time.
It didn't take too long as the players soon found themselves on the cusp of the dressing room, where Pep was already waiting!
Once they made their way inside, he acknowledged them with a round of nods before turning back to the tablet his assistant had handed him a while ago.
The players, on the other hand, got changed into their training kits and made their way out for warmups without needing to be rushed.
Wigan were already on the pitch when the City players emerged from the tunnel.
The noise around the stadium reached a crescendo as the Manchester City fans cheered on their players, and the Wigan players couldn't help but 'scout' their opponents, in person this time.
