00:12The Champions League Round of 16
00:30In the last decade including two Real semi-final victories, one for Manchester City in the last four and a
00:352-1 group stage victory for the Premier League side in this ground back in December
00:43Off we go. Let's hope it is as sumptuous as the previous meetings have been. In the 16th meeting, five
00:53wins apiece, 51 goals scored in those 15 meetings
01:01Thiago Pitta, the teenager, back to Vinny Jr. Little poke ball into the penalti area, really good up and away,
01:10Brian Diaz poked it and Donnarumma had to save
01:13He did well, Brian Diaz there, wasn't the easiest of chances to test Donnarumma, probably would have been called offside
01:19anyway
01:21Alexander-Arnold running with him, Doku turns him inside out, big chance, there was a recovery
01:28Yeah, the captain coming to his team's aid there, they're trying to get the ball to Doku whenever they can,
01:33I think he fancies taking on Alexander-Arnold and beating him
01:51He's taken it when it's quite high up in the bounce
01:55He's done well to control it, Sydney captain
02:02Real Madrid
02:04Opportunity for the break, and he's around Donnarumma
02:07And scores! And Real Madrid from the breakaway, technically
02:13The captain, Valeri
02:16Manchester City have had more of the ball
02:19And the better opportunities for their court comp
02:23Niko O'Reilly won't enjoy seeing that back, but Donnarumma has to pull away, he could have got a hand
02:28on it
02:28He maybe thought he was outside the box, I don't know, why didn't he put his left hand on this,
02:33for City keeper
02:37He's just, oh, that's a big miscalculation from Donnarumma, but what a finish from Valverde, kept his head
02:48Huge goal
02:53Valverde with the run, and the shots, and the second goal of the night
02:57For the Real Madrid captain, they lead Manchester City by two goals to now
03:02It was well executed, but from a Manchester City point of view, it was far too easy
03:07Wasn't it just? Two of their starmen
03:11Vinicius Junior and Valverde
03:15Leading from the front
03:17What a first half an hour it's been for them
03:23And what a finish this was
03:26It's kind of a lot to do to be Donnarumma from that angle still, but
03:30Beautifully dispatched
03:33Full of confidence after the first goal
03:36What about that?
03:38Pitar
03:44Diaz looks for the Valverde on a hat-trick
03:46Brilliant!
03:47Oh my goodness me!
03:49He has a first half hat-trick
03:51And that was simply sublime
03:53Real Madrid three
03:55Manchester City
03:56Manchester City now
03:57What a fantastic goal
03:59I thought the chance had gone
04:01I thought they'd taken too many touches
04:03I thought Vinicius Junior
04:05Passed up the chance to shoot
04:08And it looked like fizzling out
04:12Valverde
04:13Will not score
04:15A more skilful goal than this
04:17He's absolutely flying
04:19What about this for a pass as well?
04:21But after that
04:24It's all about the awareness
04:26Diaz with the lovely dink
04:30Beautiful stuff
04:31And what a big goal in the context of this two-legged tie this might be
04:44Purposeful run this
04:47Checks back
04:47Gets a shot away
04:48Had to be parried by Donnarumma
04:50Quickly onto it was Vinicius
04:51It's another chance for Real Madrid
04:53And that would have made it four
04:55Well I think it was Ruben Diaz that got a vital touch on it block
05:00Well it's a great run for
05:01Mahim Diaz this
05:02Just opened up for him
05:08Let's have a look at Ruben Diaz here
05:13As he makes up the ground
05:16Just does enough
05:19Towards the far post
05:21John Reilly arrived
05:23Went wide
05:24Whistle blows anyway
05:26He made a bit of a mess of it
05:28The keeper
05:29There's no foul on him
05:30There's no foul
05:32Nico O'Reilly
05:33Just didn't expect it
05:35Golden rule
05:36People always think it's coming your way
05:39Bernardo Silva
05:40Semenyo
05:41Goes near post
05:42Where
05:42The leggy Tibor
05:44Courtois
05:46Saves
05:47Just trying to sneak one in
05:49I think Semenyo
05:50Mind you he does slip
05:52So
05:53Didn't go where he wanted it to
06:02He's had a good game
06:03And now look at this for a counter
06:08And Vinicius has got him behind
06:09And can he finish and can he finish the tie effectively
06:13Around Donnarumma was their contact
06:15A penalty is given
06:19He's had a quiet evening
06:21He's had a quiet evening
06:21And suddenly explodes on the counter
06:22And wins the spot kick
06:23I wondered initially
06:26I wondered if he's offside
06:27But he's made a run from his own half
06:29And once again a long ball kills
06:31City
06:31Does ever so well to get his body in the way first of all
06:35And then a chakra challenge from Donnarumma
06:37This is experience from Vinicius Junior
06:40And that's a penalty all day long
06:44Saved by Donnarumma
06:46It was casual with a penalty
06:47Oh! Donnarumma's come and not got by it
06:50He's Brian Diaz
06:53Well
06:54Oh we're gonna look back
06:56At that
06:58At the end of the game in Manchester
07:02Really casual wasn't it Alan?
07:05Yeah
07:11He's the pen
07:16It's nowhere near the corner
07:21Never has to look to see where Donnarumma's going
07:25And he was already moving that way wasn't he?
07:27Before the ball was struck
07:29They're on to Gula
07:30Manchester City simply haven't dealt with their movement
07:34And Vinicius Junior went to Kraft
07:36It went to Bende
07:38Well he didn't have much of the goal
07:40To aim at there
07:43But he's enjoying himself
07:46City's certainly hard when he gets on the ball
07:49And it's Real Madrid that
07:51Look the more likely to get the next goal in this match
07:53Bernardo Silva
07:55Here's Rodri
07:58In behind is Semenya
08:00Pulls it back across
08:01Look at Harland
08:01That's a brilliant touch away by Rudiger
08:04To deny Harland
08:05Doku
08:08Again full white shirts around him
08:10Back to Rodri
08:14Fine pass
08:15Doku
08:17Corner ball for Manchester City
08:19Well Rudiger's touch here
08:21Harland must just have been getting ready to tap it in
08:25Again close to offside
08:28What about that?
08:29No wonder he punches the air
08:35Oh but a pressure there
08:36O'Reilly got the shot away
08:38Mistake by Pitarch
08:39Turned into trouble
08:40Which makes it a crucial save
08:42Oh my
08:43What a stop this is
08:46He's brilliant
08:46With his feet, with his legs
08:49Courtois mentioned in the first half
08:51His reflexes when the ball's down below him
08:55Absolutely superb
08:57Dean Housen
08:58Wonderful performance from him
09:01What a performance by Real Madrid
09:04They are half way
09:06To a place in the quarter finals
09:08They have beaten Manchester City
09:10With a brilliant first half hat-trick
09:12By their captain Federico Valverde
09:14Pep Guardiola's side never really got going
09:17O'Reilly came closest to scoring
09:19Courtois made a very very good save to deny him
09:22But on the night Real Madrid were better
09:24Far better at both ends of the football field
09:26Brilliant night for the Spanish Giants
09:29Really has all eyes now
09:31Next week on Manchester
09:32What's up?
