Real Madrid Knock Manchester City Out Of The Champions League With Comfortable 3-1 Win<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With a 3-2 win in the bag from the first leg, Real Madrid were favourites with the best football betting sites<\/a> to knock Manchester City out of the 2025 Champions League in hopes of winning the competition for a second consecutive season.<\/p>\n

As if Pep Guardiola<\/a>‘s side didn’t already have an uphill battle, it got even more difficult as Madrid broke the deadlock in the second leg early in the first half.<\/p>\n

It took just four minutes for Kylian Mbappe to put the Galacticos ahead, getting on the end of a sublime Raul Asencio pass from defence to put Madrid 4-2 up in the tie. City needed at least two goals now in Spain to force extra-time, whilst stopping the formidable Real attack from scoring again.<\/p>\n

The history making Premier League champions did find a consolation goal in the second minute of added time, as Nico made it a more respectable scoreline of 3-1, with Omar Marmoush<\/a> assisting the Spaniard.<\/p>\n
