Tbf, we were taking the piss wearing that kit, I think that's what upset them. Complete disrespect tekkers.

That was up there with some of mourinhos shithousery

i mean wtf??? The whole city outfit should be commended for superhuman reserve, as the blowtorch would of been out if I was anywhere near that shit, despicable sportsmanship and they should have the book thrown at them!

Savic surely coked up

how have VAR not seen the headbutt and the hair pull?

You mean why have they ignored it. Can't possibly not have seen it.

Well done out there.

Expected their nonsense and we rode it out.

Ake was magnificent in his cameo, plus kudos to Zinny as well for diving in to help Phil when being assaulted, good lad.

First on the scene.

Amazingly the BBC stats reckon only 8 fouls to 7 all game. That seems unlikely to me.
BT adamant that Savic pulled Grealish's hair and there was a headbutt somewhere in there, plus the fight in the tunnel.

Ake excellent when he came on, Fernandinho also excellent.

He did....

 

[Bald fraud]

Ake fucking huge at the end.

He was fuckin brilliant!

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, speaking to BT Sport: "It is the champion of Spain and they played with energy and in second half were better than us and we were lucky we didn't concede. In the first half we had chances, overall we are in the semi-finals - it is well deserved.

"The opponent is so tough, all the teams in Champions League come here an suffer so it is important we go through."

On whether Atletico went too far: "Nothing to say."

On Phil Foden being targeted: "I don't know I cannot talk about what other people do, I don't know."

On City's injuries: "We are in big trouble, so we can't forget we played three days ago, travelled, come here, have a lot of injuries now and I don't know what will happen in the next weeks but today we celebrate because it is the third time in Manchester City's history we are in the Champions League semi-finals.

"We cannot play all the time and score four or five goals, we are human beings - we come from a difficult game against Liverpool."
