Ian: Clinical. You cannot argue about City and Liverpool being the best in Europe. It is beyond a doubt.

Matty: That finish from Mahrez is unbelievable. You'd expect him to cross or shoot into the far corner. To whip it in near post is incredible technique. City by far the better team across the two legs here. Just need to see the game out!

Again the flag is up as Real threaten.

Karim Benzema gets in behind the City defence, cuts back and fires a low shot that Ederson saves.

The striker was offside, though, so Real's first shot on target is chalked off.

This has been a supremely professional display from City. They've managed the game brilliantly.

OK, maybe it was handball by Cancelo. Real can feel a bit aggrieved at that.

Real want a handball against Joao Cancelo near his own box. They won't get it.

Desperate now, the home side.

It's the City fans you can hear now.

Bouncing in the away end.

Jack Grealish on for Gabriel Jesus.

Riyad Mahrez becomes the first player to score seven goals for Manchester City in a single Champions League campaign.

Sergio Aguero (2013-14, 2014-15, 2018-19), Raheem Sterling (2019-20) and Gabriel Jesus (2019-20) all scored six for the Citizens in a single CL campaign.

Real have been the kings of digging out victory from the jaws of the defeat in this season's Champions League.

If they can do it again here, it would top the lot.

They've still to test Ederson, though.

Riyad Mahrez, hardly been involved in the game.

One chance with that left foot and he puts it into that top corner.

What a finish, what an outstanding finish. Thibaut Courtois has absolutely no chance.

City have played this perfectly.

Held Real at arm's length and picked their moment to stick a knife right in the Spanish side's heart.

Real respond to the goal by sending on Marco Asensio and Eduardo Camavinga for Luka Modric and Casemiro.

This is big. Joao Cancelo is not the most natural defender and not as quick as Kyle Walker.

He has been absolutely magnificent. He has been absolutely incredible, he is obviously not 100% fit.

Walker limps off. Hopefully this is not too serious.

Oleksandr Zinchenko replaces him and will presumably play left-back, with Joao Cancelo coming over to the right.

It is one of two changes, with the other seeing Ilkay Gundogan on to strengthen midfield at the expense of Kevin de Bruyne.

It is an accidental blow to Walker's ankle. Surely the England full-back can't come back from this? He looks in agony.

Vinicius Junior gets goal side of Kyle Walker and goes down as the two collide.

No free-kick to Real, but Walker is down and in pain. A lot of pain.

You have to commend City for their defensive job here tonight.

Real remain without a shot on goal.

Real twist in attack. On comes Rodrygo - scorer of an all-important goal against Chelsea in the last eight - for Toni Kroos.

You'd think Fede Valverde drops back, with Rodrygo slotting into the attack.

Casemiro continues his hatchet job, hacking away at Bernardo Silva.

Eventually, the ref gives City a free-kick, which is swing into the Real box and headed away.
