Manchester City Earn Draw Against Real Madrid In The First Leg Of Champions League Semi Final

Kevin De Bruyne’s goal secured a 1-1 draw for Manchester City against Real Madrid on Tuesday in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final.

Pep Guardiola’s side dominated the early stages at a nervy Bernabeu, with Thibaut Courtois denying De Bruyne, Rodri, and Erling Haaland twice.

But Vinicius Jr scored with Real’s only chance of the first half, a 25-yard thunderbolt that flew past Ederson following a brilliant run by Eduardo Camavinga.

Just as Real began to dominate a period of the second half, City found a way back with De Bruyne fizzing a shot from a similar distance into the bottom corner.

Aurelien Tchouameni almost gave Real the lead again with another strike from range but it was well saved by Ederson.

City are now unbeaten in 21 games in all competitions, a run that includes 17 wins. Seven more victories and they get the Treble.
