Man. City – Real Madrid 4-3

Real Madrid were disoriented after Kevin De Bruyne and Gabriel Jesus put the hosts up 2-0 in 11 minutes, and although the ever-reliable Karim Benzema pulled one back before the break, a Phil Foden header returned the lead. a two-goal lead over City early in the second half. However, Vinícius Júnior did not take long to react, and although a good goal from Bernardo Silva made it 4-2 on the night, a penalty from Benzema a la ‘panenka’ lifted him to the top of the scorers’ table this season and left Carlo Ancelotti’s men with a disadvantage of just one goal to overcome.

First leg line-ups

Real Madrid: Courtois; Carvajal, Éder Militão, Alaba, Mendy; Valverde, Kroos, Modric; Rodrygo, Benzema, Vinicius Junior

Man. City: Ederson; Stones, Rúben Dias, Laporte, Zinchenko; De Bruyne, Rodri, Bernardo Silva; Mahrez, Jesus, Foden

Abolished away goals rule

There has been a rule change for the 2021/22 edition: ties tied after the second leg will go to extra time and shootouts if necessary, regardless of the number of goals scored by a team away from home.

Carlo Ancelotti, manager of Real Madrid: “These players do not lose their heads when things are difficult. The first 20 minutes [del partido de ida] They were very difficult, but then we were able, little by little, to come back from the game and maintain our chances of qualifying. [Hemos] conceded two goals very early. But we took three goals to the Bernabéu. Now we hope to reach the final.”

Pep Guardiola, Manchester City manager: “We did a lot of good things [en el partido de ida]. Unfortunately, we conceded the goals and could have scored more. Both teams want to attack, both teams want to play. Football is a fantastic spectacle. The threat they have is always there, but we have seen that we can be there. For us, for Man. City, we are very proud. We are going to Madrid to try to win the match.”
