    FT: RM (10) 1-2 Man City!!! All over at the Bernabeu!! Isco had put the hosts ahead, but then Jesus headed City level despite RM wanting a foul and then De Bruyne made it 1-2 after Carvajal fouled Sterling. To make things worse for Zidane's men, Ramos got sent off for DOGSO and now the Spanish side need at least two goals at the Etihad. Man City are the only English side not to lose in the CL last 16 first legs. That's all from us, thanks for joining us and see you again soon!

  • 78'
    Jesus scores for City!!! RM shouting for a foul, but it's given for now. De Bruyne's chipped pass is headed in by Jesus. Jesus touches his with both hands before heading in, but it's not enough for a foul for me.

de Real Madrid en el 60'

    Welcome back! Man C have just got us going again!
  • 45'
    HT: RM 0-0 Man C! Half-time at the Bernabeu! RM began the game with more possession, but Man C looked more dangerous towards the end. Jesus has had two very clear chances, one which was saved by Courtois and the other which was cleared off the line. Benzema's header brilliantly saved by Ederson is the closest the Spanish side have come. Back in a bit for more!

  • 38'
    Both teams attacking here! It has certainly livened up after a dull opening 20 minutes.

  • 35'
    Rodrigo makes a nasty challenge on Benzema and is lucky not to see yellow. He's kicked on the shinpad.
  • 35'
    It doesn't seem tooo serious and we are back underway.
  • 34'
    Gundogan is down now. They're going down like nine pins. Modric falls on top of him. Was accidental.

    The two sides last met in the Champions League in the semi-finals of the 2015/16 season. It was goalless at the Etihad and then RM won 1-0 in the return thanks to a Fernando own goal.
