LONDON (Reuters) - Watford manager Javi Gracia was pleased with his team in the early stages of their 6-0 drubbing by Manchester City in the FA Cup final on Saturday and was left to rue a missed chance by Roberto Pereyra when the game was scoreless.

Manchester City capitalised in typically ruthless fashion, equalling the biggest ever victory in the FA Cup final to complete an unprecedented treble of domestic trophies.
