Rodri and Jack Grealish have outlined how Manchester City players responded to the Real Madrid exit this week by channelling their efforts into beating Newcastle in the Premier League.
City suffered late Champions League heartbreak with 89th and 91st-minute goals snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, and the players looked devastated at full time in Madrid. They mostly kept a low profile on social media and publicly in the following days, and returned to action with a much-needed 5-0 win over Newcastle on Sunday, to take a three-point lead in the Premier League.
Before the game, Pep Guardiola admitted the squad were low after the Madrid trip, and after the win goalscorer Rodri admitted it was a tough experience.
