London - Coach Roberto Mancini has described Manchester City winning the Premier League after 44 years as a miracle.
"It was a miracle. God gave a look at our game and gave us a hand. I remember looking at the clock and it showed the 72nd minute, when I glanced a second time it was the 89th," The Sun quoted Mancini, as saying.
The devout Catholic was left hoping for a miracle, as City looked all set to blow their big chance as they headed into the injury-time.
"It seemed like a minute had passed. At that point I hoped for a miracle. Then what happened, happened. Football is crazy and extraordinary for this. I've won before at the death but the emotions I felt on Sunday were amazing," The Blues manager added.
Following Sergio Aguero's dramatic win to beat Queens Park Rangers by 3-2 and pipped Manchester United to top spot, Mancini is praying his side can win the Champions League next season.
"That's the next step. The first year was the FA Cup, the second year the Premier League and I hope it will be the Champions League in the third. We will have to improve a lot but I have a feeling we can do it. Once you have started to win and you know how to do it, many things follow as a consequence," he said.
