In the first leg of their UEFA Champions League clash, Manchester City and Real Madrid drew, and Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola took a dig at a reporter who suggested that 'everyone' thought City would 'destroy' Real Madrid. Guardiola reminded the reporter of Real Madrid's record of winning many Champions League titles and asked who the 'everyone' referred to. Madrid led the game after Vinícius Júnior scored in the first half, and Kevin De Bruyne equalized for Manchester City in the second half. The second leg of the clash will be held next week in Manchester, while the first leg of the Inter Milan and AC Milan match will be played on May 10.
Manchester City controlled possession in the match, but failed to convert it into significant scoring opportunities, and their striker Erling Haaland missed a few early chances, but wasn't much of a threat throughout the game.
