De Bruyne was forced off the pitch after only 35 minutes as Rodri’s second-half goal ensured Man City defeated Inter Milan 1-0 at the Ataturk Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey.
Speaking about his injury after the game, the Belgian told the media that it was a hamstring problem, adding that he did everything to be okay for the Champions League final.
De Bruyne said (via Evening Standard): “It’s been a hard two months. I had a lot of issues with my hamstring. It snapped.
“It is what it is, I did everything to be okay. It is a shame because I felt really good in the first half an hour, and I felt I was doing well. But the team is good enough, and we won, so that is it.”
He added, “It is amazing, we have been working so long for this. The history for the club and for everything that we did as a team, I think we fully deserve it.
We have not lost in the Champions League this year. It was not the best game, but finals are always difficult, and now it is time to celebrate.”
