This is a total destruction by Manchester City and they have just scored their third goal. From now on I don't think Real Madrid have any hope left in this small time period remaining in the game. This time Manchester City didn't let their opponent shock them in the same way they did in the previous season. Winning by 4-1 on aggregate is really huge for Manchester City as well.
Because this is like one of the best kind of revenge types for them. This time Manchester City are really going for the Champions League title and Inter can't be a big obstacle ahead in my opinion.

Courtois had more touches in the first half than Benzema and Vini jr. Ancelotti needs to make some tactical changes especially in Camavinga side. Modric was not in the first half and Madrid mainly suffered in the first half because they lacked a strong Midfield and Manchester took advantage. Real Madrid need to change back to 4-4-2, removing Rodrygo whose wing has not been functional and bring in a defender that can take Camavinga's place in left back so he can go back to the defensive midfield position he knows how to play best.
Now it is clear why the odds were so small for Manchester City. With 13 shots on goal from City and only 3 from Real Madrid after 65 minutes, the result of 2:0 is okay. It is surprising that Bernardo Silva is so important today, i thought Gündogan, De Bruyne or Haaland would decide the game. In the last minutes i would maybe bet on a 3:0 than a goal from Real Madrid. The final between Inter Milan and Manchester City is on 10 June, they play in Istanbul. 
Manchester City raced out to an impressive in the first half. Real Madrid were unable to withstand the onslaught. The Citizens have taken a two-goal lead. I have no idea what Madrid will do in the second half. City are in the Champions League final, I have no doubt.
Madrid are having a shock of the season as the dominance from City in the first half was overwhelming and unprecedented to their expectation that they could conceive 2 goals within the first 45mins of the game.What Manchester City needs to do is to continue with the pressure in the second half as it were in the first half as they are with the upper hand now for the final round. For it can only take a miracle to happen for Madrid to make a come back and therefore take City to an extra half but how possible is that is what am unsure about.
Manchester City has really dominated the game, Haaland two wonderful header on goal stopped by Curtuois and Grealish is having a great game, he's doing well on the left flank and keeping Calvajar busy. Two goals in 36mins of the game by Bernado Silva to put the home side ahead. Real Madrid is doing their best to comeback but they are really sloppy with the ball and lack confidence. I think Modric needs to be substituted in the second half, he's far from his best and always losing possession.
Manchester city have surprised me in tonights game, even real Madrid was not expecting it, and Bernardo Silva scoring two goals the best players that Manchester City has his Bernardo Silva and De Bruyn have very incredible performance, Haaland don't do half of what this players are doing Haaland can always deliver when ever he gets a good assit, no argument about this Manchester City has already won the tittle and real Madrid really fucked up was not expecting them to lose against Manchester City the way they performedduringthe first leg, that's the joy of football.
Inter Milan defeated AC Milan in the second aggregate match with the results of 1-0, Inter Milan excelled in two matches against AC Milan, although in this second aggregate AC Milan dominated but they did not find opportunities that led the results of the goal, very fierce indeed and only Discharge one goal in this match.
Inter Milan is waiting for his opponent who is competing between Manchaster City and Real Madrid, but it seems that Real Madrid is at the end of the hope because Mancaster City has been two goals ahead in the first half through Bernardo Silva, Halaand is still in the key to his movement, and it is definitely guessed By Pep, Madrid will not let Haaland continue to dribble, but Pep relies on other feet to anticipate that, because he thinks it is impossible to hope for Haaland who is certainly guarded by the Madrid defense.
That's a good strategy Pep.

Since it is a game then you can definitely expect Real Madrid to catch up to that 2 goal deficit in the second half. The thing is, Manchester City are so good on all fronts at the moment and their confidence is boosted after being 2 goals up. Pep wasn't going to change his plans in the second half, I mean he was going to keep playing attacking football and dominating.
Real Madrid tried to build up in the second half and will probably try to make some difference from their strategy. But I think Manchester City will win this if they don't lower the intensity of their game.
This time, City were able to play a great first half, Real had almost no chance, it seems to me that the City players were just faster.Real Madrid tried to build up in the second half and will probably try to make some difference from their strategy. But I think Manchester City will win this if they don't lower the intensity of their game.
The second half started not so actively, after all, City already has a good advantage and now it is very important to keep it. Moreover, Real Madrid will now be forced to go forward and this will open space for City to attack. The situation is difficult for Real Madrid, if City can score even one more goal, then for Real Madrid it will definitely be over.
Courtois have really saved real Madrid in the first half of the match they will have conceded more than two goals in the first half of the match, he saved the two wonderful balls nodded by Haaland.
Courtois had more touches in the first half than Benzema and Vini jr. Ancelotti needs to make some tactical changes especially in Camavinga side. Modric was not in the first half and Madrid mainly suffered in the first half because they lacked a strong Midfield and Manchester took advantage. Real Madrid need to change back to 4-4-2, removing Rodrygo whose wing has not been functional and bring in a defender that can take Camavinga's place in left back so he can go back to the defensive midfield position he knows how to play best. Courtio has more touches than all Madrid players in the first half. It is not the presence of Rodrygo that is the problem. Rodrygo can mark, Ancelotti should remove Vervalde. I don't know how he played Junior Rodrygo, Valveder and Benzema in.the first half and yet nothing happened. They approached the match with fear and to the extent that Vinicius Junior started shouting for them to come forward. I don't really understand what Ancelotti did
2- 0 in the first half is huge for Madrid to reply, After the goal, it became difficult for Madrid to slow the tempo down. All attention was on Haland to be getting goals, but the coordination between Walker and De Bruyne switched the system over that fed Bernado Silva's goals.
Real Madrid needs to regroup and attempt a different tactics in the second half in order to have a better comeback in this game.
Do you think the come back will be easy for Real Madrid, hope you know real Madrid is playing against Manchester city and the match is been played at Etihad stadium. I don't think it will be easy for Real Madrid to make any come back in this match, am sure even with the two goals scored by Manchester City, they won't relent in the match, am sure they will still put more effort to score more goals in the second half, and if they can't score more goals, am sure they will do everything possible to maintain the two goals which they have scored in the first half of the match. Real Madrid needs to regroup and attempt a different tactics in the second half in order to have a better comeback in this game.
And it looks like Manchester City really dictated Real Madrid's game of the day like they did in the first half. Real Madrid could hardly build an attack in the first 30 minutes, they even had difficulty taking the ball from Manchester City players. Pep Guardiola really made Ancelotti's men bow in the first half when Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva managed to score twice against Courtois.
Eduardo Camavinga, who was predicted to play very well in the second leg, in fact could not stop Silva's movement on the left side of the defense. It was clear that it was an open hole in the Real Madrid defense in the first half and Manchester City really took advantage of it. I think that 1 more goal scored by Manchester City will completely end the struggle of Real Madrid and the optimism of its fans. There's no magic, it's a game.
Manchester city is taking advantage of the midfield,as Madrid midfield is very porous. Playing at home is a very big advantage to city as Sylva scored two goals to give his side big hope into the finals. Manchester city dominated the game an won possession over the game. It is quite surprising to Manchester city performance tonight,as they are in their super form.Eduardo Camavinga, who was predicted to play very well in the second leg, in fact could not stop Silva's movement on the left side of the defense.

Real Madrid has always being dangerous as Kroos took a world class shot from outside the box but it couldn't go through into the net. It hit the up side of the post. Real Madrid needs to take the second half serious if they are ready to qualify to the finals,if not they have already lost out of the final race because Manchester city is leading the game by 2 goals ahead of Real Madrid. I don't know if there will be a welcome back for Ancelotti men in the second half.

I don't believe Real will be able to equalise in the second half either, but I really hope so... Of course City are not Liverpool when Real managed to score five goals after conceding two... But I agree with you that City have absolute dominance and Real just can't be seen on the ground... I wish their game will be better in the second half...
With the style of play and aggression that Manchester City have been able to deliver in this game thus far, its safe to say Real Madrid is just gone. The chances that Real Madrid would come up with any come back is pretty much zero.Manchester City is not going to let that be there fate this time, last time it was Rodrygo amd this time, its been De Bruyne and B. Silva looking to send them home. Real Madrid did waste there best chance of getting there home advantage, here is Manchester City showing them how it's done.
The second half is already on the go, it would be interesting to see what changes that would be effected in this second half.

...that is basically some of the worst defending I've seen from Real in a Champions League match ever. I wonder why they didn't stop soaking the play from City as soon as they went 1-0 down.
There will be no dark magic in this tie to save the game for Madrid, sorry in advance.
It is basically the worst defense and also the worst Midfield and was striking of Real Madrid. There will be no dark magic in this tie to save the game for Madrid, sorry in advance.
No one expected this to happen this way.
I had to open my refrigerator to grab some wine in other to enjoy a beautiful Champions League game, but I was optimally disappointed when things started happening the way it was not supposed to be.
How come Manchester City have 240+ passes against Real Madrid having 45 passes.
This is an eye sour.... Second half just started
Such a great 1st Half, Manchester city is really a demon and It’s not Real Madrid’s fault. No matter what lineup they use or what changes Ancelotti makes to the plan, it's impossible to beat a team of this caliber. City didn't just appear out of nowhere, they have been investing in top players for five years and building such a massive great team. They played in tournaments and achieved great success. There was only one thing missing before and it was the experiences in the advanced stages of the Champions League. Today they have the experience, the trust, strength, and top players. It's just normal that after years of experiences they bring in the best players and become the best team in the world.
I don’t see Real Madrid winning today and that’s a fact unless something crazy will happen in the second half. Anyway, 2nd half will start now, enjoy watching the game fellas! 🔥

The first half has shown results and somehow Ancelotti's strategy to get out of the pressure of Manchester City. In the second half, Real Madrid had to change and at least get the chance to attack. Based on the first difference between the two, it is clear how effective Manchester City's game is when launching attacks. Benzema, Vini, and Rodrygo have not been able to find a gap to break through the solid defense of Manchester City's back line. The match had a very fast rhythm, attack after attack that Madrid received was relentless, so Courtois had to work even harder. The Madrid defender without a Rudiger looks easy to be played by opponents.True the plans of Ancelotti didn't work out in the first half and his side has conceded 2:0 already and his team has also failed yo withstand the excessive pressure from the lift and right flank of Manchester City which is the main point that Pep is using to demolish Real Madrid.The three players you mentioned here has been hidden in this game because KDB has taken control of the team and if nothing is done by Ancelotti before 70 minutes of this game we may end up seeing a score line of 5:0 because the Real Madrid goal keeper Thibaut Courtois is already in deep pressure because of the numbers of shots and saves he has received and made in this game.Its City mounting all the attack here and they look so unstoppable already after getting 2:0 goals advantage in the first half.
Manchester City raced out to an impressive in the first half. Real Madrid were unable to withstand the onslaught. The Citizens have taken a two-goal lead. I have no idea what Madrid will do in the second half. City are in the Champions League final, I have no doubt.
If the game in the second half continues like the first half, then Real Madrid will really lose. In the first half Manchester City completely dominated the game, they didn't even let Real Madrid breathe for a moment because they continued to attack. 2 goals came in this first half, and it is a more difficult job for Real Madrid. It was quite interesting when Real Madrid couldn't attack because Manchester City kept on intimidating them when they had the ball. there were 45 minutes of the second half, but with the Real Madrid that I saw in the first half, it's normal to be pessimistic about Real Madrid. So how can anyone expect the seasoned Real Madrid to beat Manchester City from the first half when they don't have much of a ball to play? I don't want to talk too much about the first half because actually Real Madrid just practiced like playing cat and mouse while chasing the ball from foot to foot of the Manchester City players.
What's really wrong with Real Madrid, I was expecting the match to be a tough one, but the first half of the match looks very easy for Manchester City, it's looks like they are just having a training, seriously real Madrid performance was really poor in the first half of the match, Madrid didn't even have single shot on goal, that's really poor, but let's see if their will be improvement in the second half of the match, but they will find it difficult to win this match. I think 2-0 is the best answer to make Thibaut Courtois and all the Real Madrid defenders suffer. Now the first round has ended, so I hope that each of us can make a small conclusion for the results of the first round.
Courtois have really saved real Madrid in the first half of the match they will have conceded more than two goals in the first half of the match, he saved the two wonderful balls nodded by Haaland. Let's see what will happen in the second half, but am still expecting more goals from Manchester city if their is no improvement in real Madrid performance. ...that is basically some of the worst defending I've seen from Real in a Champions League match ever. I wonder why they didn't stop soaking the play from City as soon as they went 1-0 down.
