Laporte never fails to shit the bed in a big match.

This x10000

4 is the least we can score, 3 the most they can in that match. Frustrating but still fancy us to go through.

Just reflecting on that. Fuck me how far have we come. Real Madrid!!

Spurs game vibes for me ..

Yeah was thinking the same

will l feel a lot more confident with walker back in the side. Some of that defending was kamikaze stuff

'An unbelievable night'​

FT: Man City 4-3 Real Madrid

Alan Shearer
Former England striker on BBC Radio 5 Live
They have given us some exceptional football this evening. Both teams were really open but when you look at it from a neutral point of view - the goals, the atmosphere... It's just been an unbelievable night.

Both managers can be incredibly proud of their players and their efforts. Not so good defending but some of the attacking play was absolutely phenomenal.

It was a joy to be here. It was a joy to watch. It was absolutely relentless from the first minute.

Is number 3 really a penalty ? It's harsh he gets his head to it first.

I see your perspective but refs have been pretty consistent with penalties like those.

We are likely to win in Madrid. Hopefully, both Cancelo and Walker will be back.

Fantastic game. Proud of the team.

Madrid scum the luckiest club ever bar none
We had our foot on their necks and we blew it

We've not blown it.

We also pissed in Tebas' half time brew. And will do it again In Madrid.

Wow.

Mahrez enemy number one again but I thought other than that he was good, as were all the boys..

We won the psychological battle, hopefully we will be at full strength for the away leg.

What was Laporte doing for their second? He let him have a free run all the way to goal, absolutely abysmal deending. At some point he he to worry about the ball and not the man in the middle and pass him over to Zinch and attack the ball. Cant believe he just let him run all the way and have a free one on one

It was straight up weird and if it turns out he'd been brown bagged tonight i wouldn't be slightly surprised.
