Not impressed with City at all. Could not handle Atleti's press in the 2nd half. Survived by the skin of their teeth.

I fancy Madrid in the semi-final. Benezma will take his chances and the lack of a striker will come back to haunt Pep.

Up there with the worst matches i have ever seen in the CL. Entertaining last 10 minutes though of football, or lack thereof, for all the wrong reasons.

Commentators saying fight in the tunnel with police getting involved. Stefan Savic apparently went running after Grealish lol.

Pep out atleticoed, atletico, horrible game but can't be too mad at it, his team really needs a striker though, if he had gonna Kane in the summer they would win a treble.

They are definitely gonna beat Madrid no worries there.

English teams getting beaten & pushed to the brink, love to see it, even though one of them will win it all in the end, but Villarreal 🤔

Ugly draw for Man City against the ugliest style of football in Europe. Pep used some of Simeone's weapons against him and succeeded. Now we are to witness Cruyffismo against the pragmatism of Ancelotti. It's a final before the final.

Why was Felipe sent off?

Anyway, Atletico had enough chances to score one goal. In the end, should have finished better.

xG 0.89 out of 15 shots in total, of which not one was above 0.2
That's enough probably for BF standards to deserve 1 goal, but in the real world not really...
