The Gallaghers’ beloved home team, Manchester City, clinched their first European title by defeating Inter Milan in Istanbul, completing a treble after winning the Premier League and FA Cup in recent weeks.
Following the final, a tweet supposedly from Liam Gallagher went viral, suggesting that he would reconcile with his brother Noel for an Oasis reunion if Manchester City triumphed in the Champions League. The tweet read, “If Man City wins the Champions League, I call my brother and I bring back the fuckin band together LG x.” However, a Gallagher spokesperson has denied that Liam tweeted this and clarified that it was created by a fan.
Nonetheless, fans took to Twitter after the victory, urging Liam to fulfill the promise of an Oasis reunion. One fan account jokingly asked for the dialing code for San Diego, referring to Noel’s current US tour, and added, “LG needs it…” Another fan wrote, “Come on, Liam Gallagher – do you keep your promises?”
After the final, Noel Gallagher was celebrated by Manchester City fans at a bar in San Diego, as he was unable to attend the match in Istanbul due to his touring commitments in the US.
Speaking about his absence from the final earlier in the week, Noel stated to the club’s official website, “I won’t be in Istanbul – I always make sure the dates around the Champions League are free, and usually, that’s always around the end of May. What wasn’t factored in was the World Cup and the knock-on effect. I’m contractually obliged to play the gig no matter what, and I’m OK with that – I will watch the game in a San Diego bar. If City win and [Erling] Haaland scores a hat-trick, I’ll be going on in my underpants.”
