Real Madrid advanced to the semifinals of the Champions League after beating Manchester 4-3 on penalties at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.
Apr 17, 2024 at 04:58 PM ETMANCHESTER, England — Real Madrid weathered the storm, silenced the crowd and ultimately ended Manchester City's brief hold on the Champions League.
“In this competition, that’s the way football happens,” the City manager said. “In other sports, for statistics, we would have won.” That counted for little as Antonio Rudiger struck the decisive spot kick after Bernardo Silva and Mateo Kovacic both saw their penalties saved. Collecting a high ball just past the halfway line, Bellingham shook off the attention of Rodri with a deft touch to wrong-foot his opponent.
With no further goals in extra time, the game went to a shootout and City immediately seized the advantage after Julian Alvarez converted his opening penalty and Luka Modric’s effort was saved.
