    I think Manchester City will be delighted with that result. They dominated the first half and were behind and Madrid were better in the second half and then City score. It was a funny game.

    FT: Real Madrid 1-1 Man City

    Big player, big goal.

    Kevin De Bruyne has scored 11 of his 14 Champions League goals for Manchester City in the knockout phase.

    No other City player has scored more in the knockout rounds than Haaland.

    Two sensational strikes from Vinicius Junior and Kevin de Bruyne means we're level after the first leg.

    City go back to Manchester with it all to play for.

    Nacho's shot is deflected off Bernardo Silva and lands safely in Ederson's arms.

    That should be it.

  6. Postpublished at 90+3 mins

    Real Madrid 1-1 Man City

    Kevin de Bruyne takes on Antonio Rudiger but can't slip it across for Erling Haaland on the break.

    City didn't commit players forward. They want to hold onto this.

    Eduardo Camavinga gets away down the left after a nice ball from Vinicius Junior.

    He cuts in onto his right foot but his shot is blocked.

    The crowd are pumped now.

    Real Madrid 1-1 Man City

    OOH. What an effort from Aurelien Tchouameni!

    He absolutely thumps it towards goal from the edge of the box. Ederson has to tip it over the bar.

    Nervy!

    Jack Grealish almost slides it through to Erling Haaland but Antonio Rudiger makes a crucial interception.

    Kwaku: The fact that Foden and Mahrez are still on the bench is mind blowing and sums up how Pep can’t handle pressure.

    That substitution presumably means Eduardo Camavinga will move into midfield.

    Ruben Dias clears the corner for City.

  13. Postpublished at 86 mins

    Real Madrid 1-1 Man City

    Luka Modric curls it in and Antonio Rudiger wins a corner off Manuel Akanji.

    Real Madrid bring on Nacho before its taken, replacing Luka Modric.

  14. YELLOW CARDpublished at 86 mins

    Real Madrid 1-1 Man City

    Eduardo Camavinga robs it off Bernardo Silva then gets a free-kick after a touch from Rodri.

    Silva then brings down Vinicius Junior on the edge of the box. A decent free-kick position and a yellow card for Silva.

    Man City are happy with the draw. It has been a very professional performance.

    They believe they can take it back to Manchester and get the result that they need.

    City are playing keep ball in the middle. Real Madrid push them back but there's more whistles from the home fans who want a bit more.

  18. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 81 mins

    On comes Marco Asensio for Real Madrid. The first change of the night.

    He replaces Rodrygo.

    Another one in the book as Eduardo Camavinga flies into Rodri.

  20. CLOSE!published at 79 mins

    Real Madrid 1-1 Man City

    Karim Benzema heads it down at the back post and Ederson makes an excellent save with his outstretched right hand.

    Benzema might have been offside anyway but a big save.
