Manchester City host Real Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League semifinal today with the tie delicately poised at 1-1.
In last week’s first leg, City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne netted in a stunner from distance to equalise after Vinicius Jr’s equally impressive curling strike from the edge of the area had put Madrid ahead at half-time.
City’s home advantage and red-hot form make them slight favourites, but Madrid’s Champions League pedigree is second-to-none and they have made comebacks and uncertainly wins their speciality in recent years.
City, unbeaten since early February, are looking to win their first Champions League title, while defending champions Madrid are looking to make it a record-extending 15 titles this year.
The winners of the clash will be favourites to slug it out with Serie A club, Inter Milan on June 10 in Istanbul, Turkey.
