Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma attend Wembley Stadium for FA Cup Final ahead of WTC clash - Watch

India batter Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma are currently in London as the Indian side are preparing to take on Australia in the WTC Final which starts from Wednesday (June 7).

Virat Kohli, and Anushka Sharma, a multi-award-winning actress, were both present at Wembley Stadium in London to experience the blue wave as Manchester City claimed their seventh FA Cup trophy against their arch-rivals Manchester United.

Ilkay Gundogan scored both goals for Man City whereas Bruno Fernandes scored the solitary goal for the Red Devils. With the win, Man City are on course to complete a treble-winning season, having won the Premier League already and a Champions League Final to play this Saturday.

This was their first ever football match experience together and the couple enjoyed every bit of it. To make their experience even better Manchester City gifted personalized jerseys to both Virat and Anushka - who were invited by Puma and Man City.

Virat Kohli later said, "I've been to friendly matches and training matches before but this was my first time at a premier football match. Watching Manchester City play is incredible. The passion and support from the fans is something special. The passion you see in every football game you get to see in only premier cricket matches like India and Pakistan in the World Cup.

Anushka added, "It's been crazy and amazing. The kind of passion you get to see in a football game is unparalleled. I've been to an El Clasico match before, and this is my second match, so I've been fortunate to witness some of the biggest games."
