City's dream of a 二塁打 Treble is no more… which is bad news for 兵器庫 and Liverpool, 令状s OLIVER HOLT

  • Man City 苦しむd 刑罰,罰則 heartbreak against Real Madrid in 支持する/優勝者s League

A few minutes before kick-off, a 旗 描写するing a 二塁打-decker bus began to be passed along the Manchester City fans behind one of the goals at the Etihad Stadium. It had Phil Foden’s 直面する emblazoned on the 味方する next to the 人物/姿/数字 192, the number of the bus that runs from Manchester, through Foden’s home town, Stockport, to Hazel Grove.

There was something else inscribed on it, too. ‘Wembley 表明する’ was written on it in big 資本/首都 letters, a 言及/関連 not to City’s 外見 there on Saturday in the FA Cup 半分-final against Chelsea but a nod to the fact that the 支持する/優勝者s League final will take place in north west London on June 1.

It turns out City won’t be there to play in it. Real Madrid rang the bell a few stops 早期に at The Etihad last night and booted City off that bus before it had left east Manchester.?


After an attritional tie that was 支配するd by a dogged Madrid defence and finished 1-1 after extra time, it took a 劇の roller-coaster of a 刑罰,罰則 shoot-out to decide this 4半期/4分の1-final but Madrid 勝つ/広く一帯に広がるd.

City went into an 早期に lead in that shoot out but a terrible, chipped 刑罰,罰則 from Bernardo Silva that sailed softly into the 手渡すs of Andriy Lunin changed the 勢い of that part of the contest and Antonio Rudiger, Madrid’s 巨人 throughout the match, kept his 神経 to 一打/打撃 home the final kick.

And so City’s dream of a 二塁打 Treble is no more. And their dream of becoming the only team other than Madrid to 保持する the 支持する/優勝者s League is no more. All of which may be bad news for 兵器庫 and Liverpool. Because now City will throw everything they have at winning the 首相 League 肩書を与える for an 前例のない fourth time in a 列/漕ぐ/騒動.

It was a heartbreaking 敗北・負かす for City who had won 28 and drawn two of their last 30 home games in the 支持する/優勝者s League before this match. They had not lost at home in the 競争 since a 敗北・負かす to Lyon 2037 days ago. Everything changed last night.

The 味方するs had drawn the first 脚 in Madrid last season, too, but City were irresistible when the teams met in Manchester. Bernardo Silva 得点する/非難する/20d two and Phil Foden’s pass to Julian Alvarez to 始める,決める up the fourth was poetry. It was the 肉親,親類d of 陳列する,発揮する that made everyone believe they were going to 勝利,勝つ the Treble.

The start was more 保守的な this time than it had been last week, when the 味方するs drew 3-3 in the first 脚, or last year. It was not until the 10th minute when Eduardo Camavinga managed the first 発射 of the game, a curling 成果/努力 that was comfortably saved by Ederson, but it was still against the run of play when Madrid took the le 広告 two minutes later.

Bellingham, who had been chasing and harrying and trying to knock City out of their stride as they built from the 支援する, took a high ball 負かす/撃墜する with exquisite 支配(する)/統制する on the half way line and fed the ball out to Federico Valverde on the 権利.

Valverde slipped the ball to Vinicius Jr and his low cross seemed to catch Manuel Akanji off balance at the 支援する 地位,任命する. He slipped as the ball went behind him and Rodrygo 攻撃するd it goalwards from six yards out. Ederson made a superb reaction save but the ball went straight 支援する to Rodrygo and this time, he rammed it home.

City laid 包囲 to the Madrid goal すぐに. Haaland wrong-footed Andriy Lunin with a 宙返り飛行ing header that 回復するd off the 直面する of the crossbar and fell to Bernardo Silva but, with the goal gaping, he could not adjust his 団体/死体 in time to steer the ball home and it bounced off his 向こうずね and into touch.

City 脅すd again 20 minutes before half time when they took a quick 解放する/自由な kick as Dani Carvajal lay complaining of an 傷害 近づく the touchline. City worked the ball to Kevin de Bruyne on the 権利 and his stinging 発射 was beaten away by Lunin at 十分な stretch. Madrid were furious play had not been 停止(させる)d so Carvajal could be 扱う/治療するd.

Ten minutes later, after a couple of 脅すs 原因(となる)d by 雷 Madrid 脱退/分離s, Haaland broke through the 訪問者s’ 防御の line and spread the ball left to Jack Grealish. Grealish ran in on goal and speared in a left-foot 発射 but Antonio Rudiger made a superb saving challenge and deflected the ball wide.

City started the second half like furies and Grealish 粉砕するd a superb ボレー goalwards from the 辛勝する/優位 of the area as Madrid struggled to (疑いを)晴らす a corner. It was straight at Lunin. A yard either 味方する of him and the Real goalkeeper would not have stood a chance.

City (機の)カム の近くに again a couple of minutes later. Under 圧力 from Haaland, Nacho tried to shepherd the ball 支援する to Lunin and then lost his 神経 at the last minute and tapped it 支援する to him. By then, Lunin had come to gather the ball so Nacho only 後継するd in prodding it past him. Haaland tried to 軍隊 it into the 逮捕する as it rolled に向かって the line but Nacho 麻薬中毒の it away in the nick of time.

Just when time seemed to be running out and City grew more and more 失望させるd, 代用品,人 Jeremy Doku 削減(する) in from the left with a 4半期/4分の1 of an hour to go and 解雇する/砲火/射撃d in a low cross to the 近づく 地位,任命する.

Rudiger, who had played like a 巨大(な) until then, scuffed his 通関手続き/一掃 straight to the feet of De Bruyne. De Bruyne took one touch to 支配(する)/統制する it and, with the second, he 解除するd his 発射 high into the roof of the 逮捕する from a few yards out. A roar of 救済 and exultation rolled around the ground.

Guardiola 取って代わるd Haaland with Alvarez and City nearly took the lead straight after kick off. Doku wriggled to the byline again but this time his cross fizzed across the 直面する of goal and no one could 適用する the finishing touch.?

A few minutes later, Bernardo Silva 設立する Foden with a crisp cross but for once, the sweetest of left feet mistimed its 発射 and the ball rolled harmlessly wide.

Rudiger (機の)カム の近くに to turning home a difficult chance on the turn on the 一打/打撃 of half-time of extra time but 攻撃する,衝突する it 辛うじて wide. Both teams began to look 疲れた/うんざりした. Bellingham exhorted the Madrid fans to redouble the 容積/容量 of their support.
