Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Real Madrid (17/03/26)

[SanPellegrini]

Having the commentary off has been so refreshing. It’s nice to enjoy the game with the crowd and not have to listen to droning, unintelligent, negative cunts

 

[come-on-barney]

I don’t get not using Nico G, something not right there.

 

[baggy]

weve been bang average this season but proud of the fight shown tonight. just hope we get angry and up for sunday

 

[pbueno16]

Stones and Khusanov at the back for the rest of the season.

 

[SMB75]

Is it me or is Semenyos 1st touch awful?

 

[N1985]

The close control of Marmoush and Semenyo makes me miss Jesus so much more.

Who, was forever offside

And injured

 

[jamielowndes]

This is a legacy game for Khusanov. One of those nights you'll think of 5 or 6 years down the line.

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

Khusanov has potential to be a legend for us

 

[jollylescott]

Great save Donna

 

[paulsimpson]

Stones and Khusanov at the back for the rest of the season.

Absolutely

 

[stan bowles]

Doku should play inside all the time not in the wing for me

He made the goal and set Haaland up for 2 easy chances all from the wing.

 

[Cuban heels]

Khusanov has been magnificent in doing the work of two men !

 

[Haaland94]

Semenyo's first touch honestly..

Semenyo, Marmoush technically not City standard. Our usual, Pep style of play, doesn't work for such players.

 

[super_city_si]

Khus has 2 men to mark now

 

[MichaelFrontzeck'sBathroom]

I must say I like Pep's changes today, good timing, and they seem to be working as well. We are playing with 10 men, but are still dominating them. I think this was doable today with 11 men.

Now just imagine if he'd have done that in the 1st leg, yet here we are fawning over a performance in a dead rubber game

 

[dubblue]

Is it me or is Semenyos 1st touch awful?

Nope it’s horrendous

 

[sh249]

Diaz played well, in fairness.

That ‚z‘ doing some heavy lifting there

 

[Ajm1985]

Great stop by Donna. Not sure leavjng Mbappe free after was great

 

[Rory Bluelow]

weve been bang average this season but proud of the fight shown tonight. just hope we get angry and up for sunday.

Can’t fault them for effort. Played their hearts out.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

City career over. No other conclusion
