That was the most deserved win I've seen in awhile. City were lucky to even be losing by 1 goal
UEFA Champions League 24/25 - Playoff Round - 11/02/25 and 12/02/25
- Thread starter RedRocket9908
- Start date
Thoroughly enjoyable Tuesday evening.
Maybe City fans should spend more time on proper/noisy support to create an atmosphere and less on sh!t banners and social media posts
So when is this happening?
City are dreadful.
Oh dear. Ederson. 
I really dont like bellingham but I thought he was the best player tonight. Not a performance for the ages or anything but he, valverde and vinicius were very good with bellingham motm for me.
That makes it even better!
Kovacic and Rico Lewis are such dreadful defensive players.
Starting at United, I'd get my left nut to have Wan Bissaka over him never mind Mazouri or Dalot.
Universe doesn't spin on an axis.
Power of friendship won us 2 CL alreadyDiaz doesn't celebrate for his goal but does for Bellingham's
HA HA HA HA HA HALA MADRID.
Every time I watch City, he is horrible. I don't understand why he plays so much.
Rico Lewis is dogshit
That was a fun watch.
I don’t like Bellingham, thought he was fantastic as well.
Deserved win for Madrid. The atmosphere sounded horrendously flat.
Rico Lewis and Ederson have got to be the weakest links.
It's no fluke. Real Madrid know how to win games. We were literally the same under Sir Alex.
Vini shinned that lob attempt
How would you know?
I thought he was absolutely meh but like he often does, he masks these performances with a goal.
Half time doesn’t count as a window as it doesn’t stop the game
Should be called out by manager and also the media. Ive heard better atmospheres in GPs waiting rooms.
City collapse again
Niko Kovac masterclass today
3-0 maybe flatters Dortmund, Sporting were the better team in the first half but Dortmund better in the second. 3-1 would've been a more even result.
Should make them safe to go through to the next stage.

Are away goals still a thing these days?
Beautiful.
What game have you been watching? He's been one of the best players on the pitch.
Great ending to the game. Citeh should not be in the UCL rn.
He just keeps going, which Madrid desperately need given Mbappe and Vinicius do nothing whatsoever defensively.
I had commented on it before he scored, I thought he worked incredibly hard, stole the ball plenty of times and knitted things together with that dysfunctional two behind him. Again, i dont like him and dont doubt therell be an overreaction, but i thought he was good
Because there is no other space around to spin into. It is everything.
Just saw the result
City feck once again
City feck once again
Exactly what they deserve....I've never heard a big game so quiet.
In the Premier League, for sure. In Europe it felt like just the type of game we'd be on the wrong end of. Too much scar tissue in the CL for me.
I have no love for Real Madrid, but this one sparks joy. Feck City.
He was brilliant tonight. He’s a complete midfielder.
