Jack Grealish has posted a message of support for his Manchester City teammates on Instagram after they saw off the threat of Atletico Madrid to book their place in the semi-final of the Champions League.
The most expensive British footballer in history failed to actually come on at any stage during the second leg but still found himself embroiled in the thick of things as tempers flared towards the end. The hosts were up to their usual tricks for much of the evening, but things turned notably sour once there was very little time to find what would have been an aggregate equaliser.
Kevin De Bruyne's solitary goal at the Etihad meant Atletico needed just one to force the tie into extra-time, yet that goal never came - instead, tensions reached boiling point as many of Diego Simeone's players started to lose control. Grealish focused on the victory in his message, writing: "Well done the boys! Through to the semis!"
