Foden falls on Lunin
The Englishman is in the fall and volleys back but the impassable Lunin is still on the spot.
WHAT HOT!

The Etihad pushes
New corner for Manchester City and Skyblues supporters continue to make their voices heard. The Cityzens are pushing to get back on track.

More spaces
Vinicius still has a boulevard in front of him and overtakes Valverde who cannot continue. The Merengues can do very badly on the counterattack.

De Bruyne has space and takes advantage of it to approach the opponent’s area. The former Chelsea player tries but Lunin unfolds and deflects for a corner.
De Bruyne volleys back
The Belgian is found, with success, by Grealish but De Bruyne’s recovery is too crushed to surprise Lunin.

Vinicius plays with his opponent and finds Carvajal with a subtle outside foot but the Spanish full-back sees his shot repelled by Gvardiol.
Real has spaces
The Merengues move forward very quickly and try to take advantage of the spaces left by the Manchester City defense. Vinicius cannot, this time, take advantage of it.
Camavinga is doing well
Former Ligue 1 duel between Camavinga and Silva. The former Rennais keeps in front of the former Monegasque and obtains a free kick which does his team good.

The atmosphere goes up a notch!
Less than five minutes before kick-off in this huge clash between Manchester City and Real Madrid. The atmosphere rises as the two teams prepare to return to the pitch.
Haaland’s revenge?
The Norwegian striker almost did not exist during the first leg because he was particularly well taken by his best enemy Antonio Rüdiger. Erling Haaland will have to prove, this evening, that he can carry weight in major events.
The warm-up begins
Jude Bellingham and the Real Madrid players entered the pitch at the Etihad Stadium to begin their warm-up. The City players will follow.
Good and bad memories from last season

The Merengues, who also held a draw in the first leg (1-1) lost 4-0 in England against an immense Bernardo Silva.
Two different victories this weekend
Manchester City and Real Madrid prepared seriously for this meeting by winning their Championship match last weekend.
The Skyblues crushed Luton (5-1) with a goal from Gvardiol who followed up after his goal in the first leg at the Bernabeu.
Opposite, Madrid disposed of Mallorca (1-0) thanks to a sublime achievement by Aurélien Tchouaméni.
