It felt like if City scored 8, somehow Real Madrid would have scored 7.
Yup
That lucky penalty makes it seem like it was close. It wasn't close, far from it. City schooled them. They're gonna get bummed again in the next round.
@@drdassler yeah we shall see about that 😅
@@drdassler just like psg huh
It wouldn’t be from how well they played but from their chances of City mistakes.
Real Madrid is really bringing it this year. Their games have been entertaining. City's football is just beautiful to see
They won't win still. Mark my words
For real thou bro they still score goals under the pressure
Bringing what lol? Losing and getting lucky not to lose by 3-4 goals? They are out this round
@@salmanhaider3876 I think City looked the better side and deserved the win but so did I Chelsea ( especially in that second game) but guess who won? City is really good but I wouldn't be in a hurry to count Real out. These guys know how to dig in and suffer in tough games
City could have scored more goals with the beautiful football and they will do it again
For Benzema to do a penenka in a UCL SEMIS and trailing it’s just crazy
against City also. lol. Benz should win the Ballon dor.. if they win the CL.. But sadly if they don't... It will prob go for Salah if Liverpool win the CL.
Zidane did panenka in the World Cup final.
Good penalty he must try it in a WC final like zidane lol
@@zorashki Oh...not Lewandowski anymore? lol
@@zorashki Looks like City are just woeful n cannot win this ucl?
It was a thoroughly entertaining game, but Real Madrid were quite poor defensively. They really missed Casemiro today.
Casemeiro played against Chelsea but RM lost.
Alaba injured too
@@ma466 : he also played first leg and RM won, so what’s your point?
@@ma466 Chelsea don't have the press of city so Casemiro makes more difference against a team like city. Chelsea don't create as much as city through the middle.
Ancelloti to blame like for like as a CDM is Camavinga not Kroos. Ancelotti making these mistakes far too often
What a game kudos to City and Real. That was brilliant.
Benzema is a better footballer than messi.
Don't get me wrong. Messi has obviously had a bunch of robbed ballon dors and is one of the greatest bottlers of all times, but in terms of individual quality, Benzema is better football player.
@@AmitabhBachchanFanAccount it was great game, but I agree that both teams defense was really poor.
@@cloak-and-dagger9660 agreed
It's kudos.
@@cloak-and-dagger9660 i hope ur only talking about this season
We were very bad defensively but I’ll take the result.. individually quality kept us in it. The audacity of Benz to chip the keeper in a game of this magnitude.. he’s just different man.
We can’t possibly play any worse defensively in the 2nd leg, plus we’re playing at home.
I think it’s fair to say City are still favorites, but I still like our chances.
@@calvinmiguel4405i hated militao yeseterday ffs however the return leg will be 🔥🔥
And the first goal, Benz is really something else. Hopefully Kyle can be fully fit for the 2nd leg, Cancelo will be back too
Benzema = Big Cojones

i think the defender could have done better there...
defender should have done better for sure.. but again these are lucky moments when you are in purple patch
Difference is one team doesn’t have pure goal scorer, the other does. With Haaland City will be scary, they miss way too many chances, against top teams it can cost you big time.
stop the nonsense. there is a reason haaland is home watching city and not city at home watching haaland. if he was that great, he would still be in the games being played but i guess its his team mates fault for his team losing... city dont need anyone because whatever they are doing is working or you just too dumb to realize it.. pure goal scorer my azz. strikers who score a lot misses the most and the reason they seem to score more than anyone else, is because they become the target to distribute the ball to when there is a scoring opportunity..

I agree with this analysis. Is it secure the league or get the elusive Champions trophy? If I were Pep I would get the champions cup
City will just smash Leeds by end of 1st half then sub important players.
Leeds just might draw this game 1 to 1.. 🙏

@@cloak-and-dagger9660 bro are you alright?
Mendy is unstable, nerves and too slow to pass when there’s still options, until 2 players run unto him and deposed him or make him pass back under pressure.
Marcelo is far better in attack and ball control, but can’t run back to defend. Yet Mendy is quick and can keep up with any fast wing out there, but when having possession, he’s awful.

"Why allow this team to live?" asking why like it was a choice. Real Madrid finds ways to stay alive. That's why they're Spanish champions and it's why they've won more champions leagues than anybody else. Even if Man City hunkered down and played defensively, Real Madrid would find a way to stay alive.
No Cancelo and No Walker

In Pep we trust 😉
@@artearmy STFU clown. Pep you trust?? How many UCL city won with that bald guy lol. The only thing he has done with city and Bayern is bottled it. So stfu 😏
Madrid played so incredibly bad and yet leave only 1 goal down and with 3 away goals truly insane

The problem is, I don’t think Madrid can win against City by 2 goals or more knowing that Walker and Cancelo will be back for the second leg.

Especially when those goals all came 2 seconds after city scored😂😂

@@shikhardahal1568 bruh why are you soo mad at a UA-cam comment
Kroos is done unfortunately he was the weakest link in the midfield and it was a wrong decision to take off modric instead of him.
He was playing out of position. The dummest decision by Ancotti putting him as a CDM since using Modric as a false 9.
He still have the passing ability but can't keep up with the high press, Camavinga, Casemiro, Modric, need to start 2nd leg and replace Rodrigo with Valverde in rw.
How dare you!
100% correct. We need a midfield of Modric, Cassemiro and Camavinga.
Casemiro not playing at all was so baffling.
I agree with Ale here, Man City was far superior but at times they really do need better game management. They should've defended much better and kept more possession of the ball up two goals. At the end of the day, they did still allow 3 goals even after scoring 4. Being pushed against the wall and getting a result is nothing new for Madrid. Their mentality of never accepting defeat is insane! I think next week is a total coin flip just like this game . Just a matter of who is more clinical and handles the game better
having mahrez on didn’t help, he was soo greedy today
Perfect take Eduardo
City should've blown Real away in this leg...if Pep had any hair he would've pulled it all out in this match. If I was Ancelotti I'd wrap Benzema up in cotton wool in between games.
Poor performance by Real defence always overshadows Benzema and Vini performance up front
@@davidg.2199 Lol
Man Madrid been in some bangers this ucl season. That chelsea tie was breathe taking this one flatlined me with excitement.
Bruh as a Madrid fan am lost of breath, my heart wants to pop off. We played PSG with insane comeback, and than Chelsea who binned us to the wall but we fought back and won, know city who is the best team in England, bad defense but we scrapped our way with a 1 goal defeat. If we win this in 2nd leg I will be the happiest man a life.

@@virtuallimit8615 Dude it's football anything can happen... and watching Real this year don't be so sure about it ✌️
@@virtuallimit8615 You won't ever put your money where ur mouth is
We had no business letting in 4 goals... had it not been for Benzema & Vini's brilliance, conceding 4 would have = getting knocked out from 1st leg. Mendy was awful (as always is against pressing teams) takes too long on the ball, gets caught & boom, trouble!
Casemiro was badly missed as the back 4 were severely exposed. Kroos was passed around so easily he must have felt dizzy. I hate the fact that we always start slow and then chase the game from behind. How about going for it from the onset?
City were city, they played their way and had their way almost throughout.
Carvajal was awful as well imo tbh
I would have prefer Lucas at rb at least
For me midfield has to be kroos case modric
And valverde as a rw but shifts to midfield like he did against Chelsea tbh
It sounds stupid but that’s our best lineup imo
No business letting in 4? It should’ve 7 or 8! If anything Real have no business being in this tie.
Be glad Joseph, it should have ended 8-4 for City
Benzema is a better footballer than messi.
Don't get me wrong. Messi has obviously had a bunch of robbed ballon dors and is one of the greatest bottlers of all times, but in terms of individual quality, Benzema is better football player.
Toni kroos has been done. He’s not good enough to play in Germany natural team why should Real Madrid depend on him to play week in week out

C'mon bro even as a city fan I think y'all should give yourself credit. I just think both teams defensively we're bad, whoever wins (I hope city do) I hope the second leg is as entertaining as this first one

Done. I just whatsapp him. He gives me bluetick though
@@zackrick 😂😂😂
City is better than real
Difficult for Brazilian players
Exactly
What a match! Anyone who spoke down on Madrid up until this point will finally realize that Real Madrid deserves to be here! They fought hard for those wins, they fought hard for the 3 goals today. Next game a 1-0 sees them playing extra time. A shock 2-0 win in 90 minutes is unthinkable with these two going at it!
10-8 final aggregate score line
Ahahahah i can see the 10-8 happening too.😂😂
From central and Attacking Midfielder, Winger up to the striker are playing on elite level, but their defense is playing like bunch of bums, losing Varane, Ramos, and then Marcelo and probably Carva aging really takes a toll on their defense, plus putting Kroos at defensive Midfielder position is bad decision, putting in Camavinga is a better decision than playing aging Kroos at Central Mid beside Modric. Their distribution from the back to mid or front is mediocre at best sofar not like it used to like 3-4 years ago.
Real Madrid lucky again, made to look second best again. RM represent the worse aspects of football, people that support them if not from Madrid are glory hunting superficial walkers, and I presume you are in this group. RM = anti football, awful club
Lol, Real Madrid deserve to be there more than Man C or any other team based on the teams they faced. Man C had it easy & so did Liverpool.
Everybody talking about "if city took their chances" , if City took their chances and scores those 6 goals , Real would have scored 5 😟
Probably lol
A lucky penalty makes you think it was a close game. Did you see it? Did it look like a close game? It wasn't close at all. City schooled Madrid & will do it again in the next round.
@@drdassler just remember that against atleti yall schooled them at the eithad but when yall went to madrid yall got schooled by a bunch of bus parkers to the point that city had to park the bus and flop for 20 minutes also so i wouldnt be so sure
No the wouldnt lol they only scored their 3rd because of a flukey penalty
@@juanmoreno267 Madrid got schooled at home by chelsea too
As a Madrid fan all I can say is we need to learn how to actually defend with aggression. Standing in a low block isn’t enough. I see city players sprinting back when we beat their press but it’s the opposite with Madrid. We were luck today.
That's why Rudiger is coming we need his fighting spirit
Not luck, we didn't kill you off and you showed your character to always stay in the game.
Benzema is a better footballer than messi.
Don't get me wrong. Messi has obviously had a bunch of robbed ballon dors and is one of the greatest bottlers of all times, but in terms of individual quality, Benzema is better football player.
thing is, most teams play like this against Real Madrid. High press, but this aggressive high press is draining. Having Kroos and Modric play like that will not bode well for them.
As you know how Chelsea absolutely got wasted from all the aggressive press, best we keep this shape we have at the moment. If it works, then don't change it... only problem today was the defense tbh, Alaba and Militao were just lost.
@@cloak-and-dagger9660 🙄
Funny how according to these pundits City let Madrid back into the game by making mistakes defensively when all of city's goals came from Madrid making defensive mistakes
Exactly.
They were forced to make mistakes while City were just sloppy at times
Every goal is a defensive mistake. But there's a difference between being forced into a mistake because of what an opponent does and, for example, jumping for a header while for some reason doing a fascist salute.
Lol, City were being sloppy with the man marking, which is why Real were even allowed to score 2 goals. The penalty was just bad luck. City's goals were results of pure brilliance from the players. Y'all acting like Real's the best team in the world, when the fact is they're not even among the top 3 as of now. The reason they happen to go through these tough games is because they know this competition inside out.....and plus they've always had great coaches to begin with. Ancelotti is just another level, the best of the best.
City goals come from constant pressure. It's a huge difference. Just like PSG game. Real got outplayed in both leg but luck carry them through
The truth is RM seems to have the best time with mistakes from opposite teams PSG in second leg awful. Chelsea first leg very bad, Man City first leg 2 goals given on plate to RM. I think City is not mentally strong enough to win at Bernabeu, if RM get a goal at any stage before City scores they will go through 100% City's players will feel the pressure n don't think they will.cope with it.

@@DonGivani nope he rejected multiple contracts. He’s done that before when he faked interest in Man United lol. Last time the club caved in. This time they showed no player is above the club and they can perfectly cope without him. Why do you think Real is in such a good financial shape compared to other clubs (apart from the oil clubs lol)
Real will win city will make mistakes
Like it or hate it, Madrid don’t beg anyone to stay, extend, whatever. Madrid is a ruthless example of no player is bigger than the club, the other clubs being Chelsea, City, Liverpool and Bayern, but they aren’t so ruthless in showcasing it. There is the other side of the story too where professionals like Pogba, Dembele, Alba, Maguire, Delli Ali etc have taken advantage of the extra protection offered by the club to ruin it. The only thing I personally don’t like is the fans booing their own players multiple times.
KARIM BENZEMA FOR THE LAST DECADE HAS BEEN TOP TIER FOR REAL MADRID. MADRID IS LUCKY TO HAVE KARIM FOR A VERY LONG TIME.
Yet the farca fans at ballon d or would still give it to Lewis
I really don’t understand Ancelotti’s team selection in this game. Playing both Vini and Rodrygo with no defensive mid vs a team as dangerous as City was always a recipe for disaster. That’s a team for when you’re 2 or 3 goals down in the second leg and desperate. He better field a more balanced team in the second leg or we’re doomed.
To be fair it's Dani who I felt let us down defensively
What can Carlo do when both your in form CBs have their worst game of the season in the same match. All it says is that there needs to be a competition for that place in the team
Camavinga should've played from the beginning instead of rodrygo. I think actually ceballos would've been better than rodrygo. When he came in madrid had a good spell of possession and passing.
Casemiro is injured and the back up for him is camavinga. Cam is good but he's very reckless, starting him against pep would be a terrible idea.
@@galactico7194 I agree there. Rudiger coming in will help. But I think Camavinga or even Vazquez over Rodrygo would have gave the team some defensive reinforcements that would have helped. It’s not like we played good defensively and just individual mistakes hurt us, we were thoroughly getting outplayed most of the game.
City plays a brilliant and beautiful football, but they played against the most effective and killer team in the world. Real Madrid has many inconsistencies in their games, but they don’t miss any goal opportunities and they have a strong mentality.
So, city is the team that plays the best football in the world, and Madrid is the most effective one
Chose your pick
City are also effective. They won the game, didn't they? Also City missed clear chances to score more goals. They should have scored at least 5. Not saying Real Madrid are not effective, they are but City are also effective. Once they buy some players who can finish off chances in the next transfer window, then they will become the most effective football team on the planet.
Fool 😂😂😂😂
Well said
I think City only had one more shot on target actually, even though it didn't feel like that
They missed goal opportunities in this game so your obviously blind?!
That match brought back the same hype I had as a neutral when watching Man u vs Real M back in the early 2000s. It was an incredible match.
That was a great match with the likes of Beckham scoring a freekick and Ronaldo of Brazil scoring a hatrick
@@sicelovilane5391 That was the match that reignited my passion for football after it dwindled tbh.
By far the best champions league game from past 3 seasons...kept me on the edge of my seat! 🔥
Not by far. But it is the best
City fans are saying if they had taken their chances, the game could have been over by first half. Madrid fans might as well say that if their defense did not make any errors, City would not have had any chances.
So, the game of “ifs” is pointless
Exactly scores aren't dealt in if's and but's
Yeah exactly never complain of missed chances....
I think the difference is that while Madrid did make some mistakes, city created a lot of chances in their own, particularly mahrez
And Madrid had some excellent chances too. Rodrigo vini and Alaba really should’ve scored
@@hs-ti4fr but scored only from the clown mistakes
Benzema is one of the best in the world. But it’s yet another example of how far an exceptional number nine can carry you - all by themselves at times - even if the rest of the team isn’t at their best.

As good as this match was, Man City missed a GOLDEN opportunity to end this tie TONIGHT!!!

No Cancelo and No Walker
No worries for the Bernabeu game
In Pep we trust 😉
@@artearmy pep will play gundogan in CDM don’t worry
Why does Ancelloti still keep on playing Kroos!! he Is by far the slowest midfielder in the side.
Kroos has actually been playing really well as of late. That being said, he should have started Cama or at least took him out at the hour mark today.
Kroos knows how to handle pressure better than other midfield players. He soaked city’s pressure and thanks to him we had what little possession we had and were out of our own half. Yes he is slow but he is the one in madrid that controls the game. And changes wings whenever we start to get stuck. Without him Real would have no possession today and scoreline would look horrible. 4-3 aint bad considering it was an away game
@@calvinmiguel4405 stop lying
@@mayurjain8088 man cant beat a press, kroos is finished. we Madrid fans know it.
@@rorisangsizwemoakofi8930 As good passer he is i also think that Kroos was poor yesterday compared to his standards.
Excellent game, I Hope City follow your wise guidance on both defense and energy management. Don’t allow ederson the goal keeper to risk with the ball when many other goalkeepers did and Benzema took advantage. I hope City come mentally strong as well as physically with Walker and stones back to the training . Now both teams man City and Real Madrid are exposed. Both managers will work their tactics based on this game. So for Guardiola use this game wisely to win the next game by a large margin and get your players be on the defense more with counterattacks and efficient time management : waisting time when scoring, literally make the game more boring than what Everton did to liverpool last game. Let’s go City boys
REAL MADRID WITH SLEEPING DEFENDERS WAS A PROBLEM. WE NEED MORE SIGNINGS. A 4 4 2 FORMATION WILL HELP US WITH CASEMIRO, CAMAVINGA, MODRIC,VALVERDE IN THE MIDFIELD
Support this, Mendy needs to be dropped, he is awful in possession
Exactly we need to lose Kroos, have Camavinga on left, Valeverde on right Modric, Casemiro in the middle. Also in defense Alaba instead of Mendy, Nacho as a CB and Vasquez as a RB. We need speed and aggression. We need to be absolutely lethal in the midfield. I miss Ramos.
@@PositiveTnt Mendy is still injured. He was limping back today. Mendy at his best is almost impossible to pass, yet today old man Fernandinho did (no disrespect to the legend, but he was never known for his blistering pace).
4 4 2
Good luck against
Liverpool City even europa league team barca will score 5
The 4th goal for city was an unlucky loss for RM because of the players stopped their action. City did control the game better.
Any other ref prolly would have called the foul but the ref played the advantage like you’re supposed to and that was the difference for the last goal
They weren't unlucky. If their player didn't make the foul that wouldn't have happened. Being punished for making a foul isn't bad luck, it's about as cause-and-effect as you can get.
@@Urbannnn any other ref would have indicated the advantage by quickly raising his hands or smth. This one was about to whisle but reconsidered and indicated the advantage only a fraction before the player took the shot. You can see some rm players stopping for a crucial sec, ofc it was their mistake but still it was kind of unfair .
Exactly bro that's what I've saying
The reason why Real Madrid players stop is because the ref put the whistle to his mouth
Best champions league match this year maybe except psg Madrid second leg
True, thought exactly the same
Real Madrid vs Chelsea was better than Madrid vs PSG.
Best matches in the UCL this season:
1. Real Madrid 3 - 4 Man City
2. Real Madrid 3 - 1 PSG
3. Real Madrid 2 - 3 Chelsea
4. Real Madrid 3 - 1 Chelsea
@@amirhosseinahmadi3706 real 3-1 chelsea also
@@eln7no I did mention that game too.
Laporte really helped Madrid on two of those goals
Nedum Onuoha always analyzes games with the most accurate feedback imo. Completely agree with everything he said. HUGE City fan here 💙
Benzema truly had nerves of steel to pull off that panenka.
But imagine Zizou did that in a worldcup final against legendary buffon. Just hats off
I think in the end it will be pure English final
Man city vs Liverpool
Which will be boring. Madrid will spice things against Liverpool
Great fighting spirit. We will complete the comeback at the Bernabeu.
Hala Madrid!
No one talking about Real Madrid missing Casemiro. Also Alaba & Mendy will be more fit in the 2nd leg.
Hala Madrid 🤍
No Mendy please am done with that guy. He is so bad with the ball tbh and fumbles when highed pressed.
Benzema is a better footballer than messi.
Don't get me wrong. Messi has obviously had a bunch of robbed ballon dors and is one of the greatest bottlers of all times, but in terms of individual quality, Benzema is better football player.
@@ragnerlouthbrok4715 Mendy is still out best LB for now. He just recovered from injury. Should be a lot better in the 2nd leg.
City also missed both their fullbacks and played a CDM in RB
Real Madrid are never dead because the spirit of Madridismo is impossible to kill.
They can be outmanned, outnumbered but never will they be outgunned.
All guns blazing till the last whistle, fighting to the death.
Proud to be a Madridista! Hala Madrid y nada mas!
Real can give rest to all the first team players till 2nd leg, but man city can’t. That will be an advantage.
2nd leg man city players will get tired
City have a lot of depth and play against a bottom of the table team…I don’t think fatigue will be an issue.
@@calvinmiguel4405 depth?..depth ain't going to help cause u need to win the PL and play real Madrid at the Bernabeu...you need ur best xi to do both
@@calvinmiguel4405 there's not as much depth as you hope..plus they're not playing bottom of the table club next. Typical deluded city fan 😂
@@Surveillance-Ys I'm actually a Real fan. I still think City are favorites (60/40), but I like our chances in the return leg given we can't possibly play any worse defensively than we did yesterday.
You don't think Leeds, a team currently in 16th is a bottom of the table team?
Vinicious was in a level higher than everyone in the game. He was exceptional. MOTM for me. I doubt if City will advance beyond this stage, they created chances they cannot handle.
He's bang average.All he has is pace

Physically Man City was way superior, Pep' s team a lot more drilled, Real Madrid had several players who did not show up . Man City beginning so well still did not finish off RM, if RM is able to score first I can see them falling apart like they did against Atl Madrid.
Fall apart??? LoL
City walked away laughing while Atl were raging and foaming at the mouth down the tunnel... hahaaaaa
walker and cancelo absence impacted the final score.
How many hours it would took the City-Atletico game to end 4-3?
About 15 hrs
Eternity
A week lol but no way Atleti are scoring 3 goals even after 10 days
@@limofootball tbf they were really close after 170min.
@@limofootball dude they were close to scoring 3 goals in the last 20 minutes of the game
This is the advantage that Liverpool has in my opinion their defense is more complete and solid.
City had no cancelo or walker...stones is also injured ofc their defense will be shaky
It's always a delight to watch a football match in which goals are scored.. very entertaining match with brilliant performance from Benzema among others. Hope a better result will come for City
Football games should be more like this.Thrilling and plenty of goals.
Madrid fan but scared to lose in the 2nd leg. I hope somehow we will find a way 🤞
No shame, even if we lose.
We are going through a rebuild process. While City is at their peak right now.
Next season, we will eat City alive, when we get Mbappe, Rudiger, Tchoameni and a RB.

@@hsafootballworld1321 lol if we had haaland it would 8 for us
@@arandomguy3288 lmao...haaland is overated... understand that...he plays in the worst league in the world...and it can be said for Madrid too?..if we had mbappe he would have bullied city's defence single-handedly to score a few goals...fyi he is clear of haaland and is the greatest talent of this decade by farr
Yes with refree
You can see it on Peps face that his a worried man he will over think something that will let Madrid in , if you have a chance bury Madrid don't ever give them wiggle room cause this is an enemy that knows how to strike back
You missed the Guardiola press conference, so don't what you're telling
@@DonGivani you can see it in his body language I'm a Madrid fan through and through we had no business scoring three goals that's on city mistakes but a lifeline for us is never a good thing for the opposition

@@BestCODPlayer115 I feel like Madrid won’t make a comeback. I feel like Pep will learn through his mistakes. I think it will be a 2-2 draw.

Rob: “he doesn’t make the perfect contact”
He literally made the perfect contact
that's purple patch mate.. a forward can't do that 9 or of 10 times
Ederson is gonna give me a heart attack
As a Chelsea fan watching the game, I'm just in awe of Real Madrid because they are not a great side, I feel like you put them in a 38 game season with Man City and Liverpool and they finish 3rd by a distance, they're probably on the same level as Chelsea, maybe not even that because of how over reliant they are on Vini and Benzema and how much Chelsea outplayed them for 3 halves of football. But here they are in Manchester, outplayed for the entire game, could've conceded 6 or 7 goals but just needed 2 moments of magic to keep themselves in the tie, it's truly incredible how they defy football tactics. It makes me love the game more because you can just take your tactics and shove them where the sun doesn't shine if you've got players up top that can produce like Vinicius and Benzema.
The guys in the studio are criticizing Laporte for the Vini goal but I remember in the Chelsea games, Benzema got 2 goals because one of the CBs got pulled over to Vinicius in pretty much the same area and he crosses the ball into the box for Benzema to finish, so can you blame Laporte for over committing, part of him might've expected for Ederson to deal with the shot but Vinicius is playing with so much confidence right now that you probably shouldn't take that risk.
What a lovely game it was, I got no reason to criticize any of these teams. Clearly Real Madrid are not the best team in Europe but they got as good a chance as anyone right now to win the champions league.
I agree Real Madrid are similar to Chelsea in the same way Liverpool are similar to Man City. Definitely the best 4 teams right now.
so a tired depleted Real kicked out liverpool last season and beat them in the final not that long ago and yet have 7 more UCLs then Liverpool & City combined who are the only epl winers last 4 and chelsea the year before well we beat them also this year scored 3 at the bridge that liverpool couldnt do VS 10 men chelsea
@@angelonikitaras2977 Both Man City & Liverpool are better than Real Madrid right now. It's a fact. Real Madrid are the 3rd best team at the moment, slightly above Chelsea but Liverpool / Man City on a good day are near unbeatable.
@@angelonikitaras2977 Real Madrid were lucky vs Liverpool in 2018, let's be honest & the other time Liverpool were far from their best, this year they have been stronger but Madrid too are having a great season.
@@e7ectric390 the champions is coming back to Spain stop crying
we really missed casemiro. Hopefully there will be some defensive stability in the mid when he returns. Great game.
Casemiro played when Chelsea hit Madrid for 3, (4 if alonsos goal stood.) I don’t think he makes a difference, not because he isn’t a great player, but because the difference between the teams isn’t personnel, it’s systemic.
Don’t worry madrid fans..as long as benzema is fit and well u got this..I know this very well as a Chelsea fan
I feel madrid will make us regret all those missed chances when we go to face them at the bernabeu.
Why do I have the feeling Real Madrid will make a come back second leg? We thought PSG had it in the bag as well but Benzema and Junior deadly combo
This is man city and not PSG or Chelsea...man city is better in away games"mark my words"
@@samsonnyabengi5358 Madrid always turn up in UCL. Also, Madrid has more experience in the competition than city. Its really hard to tell who's advancing. But I wouldn't write Madrid off. After all playing a UCL finals and winning one are both different and Madrid know how to do both.
@@samsonnyabengi5358 and Madrid won in the end. So me was right
90 % of goals come from defensive error
Kyle walker being back in the squad for the second leg terrifies meZ
love the Hendrix picture behind Onuoha!
Madrid are regularly pulling up from loss during last 3-4 matches.....
So it's a high probability that Madrid in final and 2nd leg at Bernabeu ...can city handel Santiago Bernabeu
City will make mistakes, real madrid will win
No Cancelo and No Walker
No worries for the Bernabeu game

Man City are a better team than Real Madrid, while Madrid rely too much on individuals. So City will go to the Finals.
City's whole defence relies on Walker though.
