00:00Here we go again. The two preeminent footballing forces of the 2020s come together once more.
00:14A little earlier than everybody expected. An occasion fit for the final begins the knockout
00:22playoff round. Both faltering at points during the inaugural league stage and it means that
00:29for the first time in a decade and more one of these two will be missing from the round
00:35of 16. The expectation as high though as it has ever been for an entertaining contest.
00:41There are added ingredients to the run of previous meetings that have produced so much
00:47in the way of entertainment and excitement. Well it's hat and scarf weather rather than
00:54the glorious spring sunshine we've come to associate with these meetings.
01:03The winner has so often walked out in the ultimate showpiece but tonight they walk out in freezing
01:11Manchester rain.
01:16Has to play it through and an opportunity to fill on Mendy and now for Vinicius Junior they're going to walk it in here
01:20Oli. Well Nathan Ake at the last and Real Madrid will feel they've led a big opportunity pass there.
01:29Last-ditch defending blocking on the line from Manchester City. It's wonderful play again by Real Madrid.
01:34Interchange around the edge of the box. Quite outstanding one to create space that ends up in a really good
01:39last-ditch block by Nathan Ake.
01:40And Asensio at his back. Here's Grealish. Oh Gladio. Highland is this the moment? Oh it is!
01:54The goal he craved against Real Madrid. The goal Manchester City craved.
02:00And Real Madrid have had their moments in these early stages where they've sighed through City.
02:05But the home team found an in-road here. Oh and it's all about that pass from Guardiol with his right foot.
02:13It's an inch-perfect pass into the path of Haaland. But it's still got so much to do. He carries his run on Guardiol.
02:21Great ball by Grealish. Onto Guardiol's chest. Haaland from that distance he's not going to miss.
02:26That's all about Guardiol from start to finish. He sets the move up and then he sets up the goal scorer.
02:30It's a lovely flowing move from Manchester City. Finished off with a plomb by Erling Haaland.
02:36Great delivery by Jack Grealish. Great technique by Guardiol.
02:41And Haaland finally gets his goal against Real Madrid.
02:45They're having a look. It's going to be close as you can see there.
02:49We still haven't had the lines on the pitch.
02:51But it's the instance where Guardiol chests it down to Erling Haaland.
02:55Manchester City players in blue just hoping that Haaland stayed onside.
03:00Twice the joy and Erling Haaland has his moment against Real Madrid.
03:10I think the VAR have got the decision right.
03:12Him and his teammates will be disappointed.
03:14The Manchester City faithful certainly aren't. It's a good start to the game.
03:17Vinicius Junior.
03:25It's almost a rabbit-out-of-the-hat moment there.
03:27The crossbar clattered.
03:29Looped off the heel of Akanji.
03:31There's just so much individual talent on this pitch on show this evening.
03:35Moments like that can change the game and get Real Madrid back in the game.
03:38Vinicius Junior gets a yard of space for himself.
03:40Vinicius Junior.
03:42Bernardo Silva.
03:44Haaland in again.
03:46And evasive action from Asensio.
03:48Real Asensio intervening, intercepting.
03:51But Real Madrid's still under pressure.
03:53Yeah, keeping the pressure on again.
03:54Manchester City.
03:55Savinho this time into Bernardo Silva.
03:57Plays a lovely little ball on the outside of his left boot.
04:00Into the path of Haaland.
04:01And Asensio, he's just blocking space.
04:02He does extremely well.
04:04Just throws his body across the line of the goalkeeper.
04:06Important block.
04:07De Bruyne is delivering.
04:12And Akanji in the mix.
04:15Well, there was a clear shout of keepers.
04:17I don't know if you heard it or not down the microphones.
04:19And the defenders seem to have left it.
04:20Courtois stayed rooted to his line.
04:22Akanji leaked.
04:23He gets a good header on at the near post.
04:26And lucky that it's not just dropped in at the far post.
04:29He'll be pleased the way his team have started.
04:31Here's Rodrigo.
04:34City have funneled bodies back.
04:35But there's lots of space for Mbappe.
04:38And having found that space, he would have hoped to do much, much better with that.
04:42Oh, you can see from his manager's reaction.
04:45His wonderful play by Rodrigo again.
04:47Kili Mbappe, you'd expect him to at least hit the target.
04:49He's got to do better from that type of distance.
04:52At least test the goalkeeper.
04:53Leans back and hits it harmfully over the bar.
04:55He knows it's a great chance.
05:02Keeping City moving here.
05:04And there's promise for Erling Haaland.
05:06The deflection.
05:07And it clatters the frame of the goal.
05:15Well, it seemed Courtois was left hoping and praying.
05:19Quality of foot.
05:20Gets the shot away.
05:21Takes a deflection.
05:22Up and over Courtois.
05:24He's thankful for the crossbar this time.
05:27He knows it was close.
05:28Vinicius Junior has got the better Errico Lewis.
05:38And it came at Bellingham quickly.
05:40But he'll be disappointed.
05:43Vinicius Junior gets the better Errico Lewis.
05:46He fires it very sharply.
05:48Backwards towards Jude Bellingham.
05:50Takes him by surprise.
05:52Just doesn't quite get enough purchase on the header.
05:56Bellingham.
05:58The champions tightening their grip on the game.
06:04And Ruben Diaz defending that.
06:09Some joy in the wide areas.
06:10Rodrigo this time.
06:11He doesn't get his step over right.
06:12He fools Guardiola.
06:13He almost fools himself.
06:15He's able to get to the bar line.
06:16Cut it back to Mbappe.
06:17Edison does well to get down to his left and makes the save.
06:20Good strike by Mbappe.
06:24Mbappe's gone offside.
06:27Backed off Servais.
06:28But he's won a free kick.
06:32Real Madrid survives this time.
06:33But not our silver just missed Sanchez's challenge.
06:37Free kick in a dangerous position.
06:39And Malverde took the low road.
06:45But Mbappe's free.
06:47And scores.
06:52Time stood still for a moment.
06:54But Real Madrid have got their equaliser.
07:02Their grip on the game grew as the first half drew to a close.
07:07And it's tightened further now.
07:08And it's certainly been coming.
07:12And it's from a really poor free kick.
07:14They get possession back.
07:16It's Dani Sabayos.
07:17He just spots the run of Mbappe in between the Manchester City defence that switched off.
07:21And it's not the cleanest strike or the cleanest connection that he's ever going to make.
07:24Off the top of his shin, killing him Mbappe.
07:27But he won't care how it goes in.
07:30And it hasn't been coming in this game.
07:32It's a lovely flighted ball over the top.
07:34And it's the poor connection that sends Edison the wrong way.
07:37The ball only just makes it over the goal line.
07:39Nico Lewis finding Foden.
07:42Only needs half a yard.
07:44Oh!
07:44And the referee points.
07:47The challenge by Sabayos on Foden.
07:52And Manchester City have a glorious opportunity from the penalty spot.
08:00The spell well and truly broken.
08:04And Erling Haaland restores Manchester City's lead.
08:09Well, from a seeming position of great control, Real Madrid will rue a clumsy Sabayos challenge.
08:20And Carlo Ancelotti certainly will.
08:23The confidence just seems to be back flowing through Erling Haaland.
08:27Goalkeeper goes very, very early.
08:29But Haaland wasn't changing his way.
08:30He knew which way he was going.
08:32Solid instep.
08:34Bottom right at that corner and he wheels away in celebration.
08:39It's your junior.
08:45And in.
08:49Brahim Diaz returns to his old haunt and scores a priceless Champions League goal for Real Madrid.
08:56A show of respect from the goal scorer.
09:01But a quite extraordinary incident.
09:05I can't believe it.
09:06Manchester City again.
09:07It's Edison losing possession.
09:09Really poor distribution from Edison, which is unusual for him.
09:12And Real Madrid pounce on it very quickly.
09:14Ball goes into Vinicius Jr.
09:17And he strikes it.
09:17He strikes it really well.
09:19He gets a lot of force on the ship.
09:21But it's a hit that Edison should do better with.
09:23It's a really good strike by Vinicius Jr.
09:26Powerful but straight at the goalkeeper.
09:28Edison's got to deal with that.
09:29He's got to do better.
09:30It's got to go wider the goal.
09:32Vinicius Jr. has stolen it.
09:41The race is on.
09:43And Bellingham coming in.
09:45Scores!
09:53And in next to no time, everything has changed.
09:57And Real Madrid in sight of their first away victory against Manchester City.
10:05Such poor defender again from Manchester City.
10:07Kovacic and Lewis.
10:08Vinicius Jr. is so quick.
10:10But Edison, what's he doing again?
10:11He's in no man's land.
10:13The goalkeepers cost Manchester City another goal.
10:15Rico Lewis isn't quick enough.
10:17Edison doesn't read the through ball.
10:19Vinicius Jr. is there.
10:20Quick as a flash.
10:21Lifts it over the onrushing goalkeeper.
10:23Into the path of Jude Bellingham.
10:24Who's got the simplest of tasks late in this time.
10:28To give his team the most unlikeliest of leads going into the second leg.
10:33Manchester City once again the masters of their own downfall.
10:54dij nie de ques van.
11:05Who's got the most soi?
11:06To give his team the world consider what you want from camera.
11:07That's your only third and so on.
11:08And then he and meteor.
11:09Often the 서로 over the neuropath.
11:10Ronald feels so happy.
11:10David's house zero too.
11:11And that's what we can do.
11:12Has aせて Gill need a light on the other side.
11:13And comfort him.
11:14You know what?
11:15Joven Leastvetvetexha.
11:17John will live within pastors on the different side.
