Pep Guardiola now shares a painful record with long-time adversary Jose Mourinho following Manchester City's latest dramatic Champions League exit.
The Premier League champions looked on course to book their place in a second consecutive final after Riyad Mahrez fired the visitors in front against Real Madrid on Wednesday night. However, a late double from Rodrygo sent the tie into extra-time, and Karim Benzema sent the La Liga winners through from the penalty spot.
It was an astonishing comeback which in some ways defied belief, with Carlo Ancelotti's side failing to register a shot on target until Rodrygo's first goal in the 90th minute. However, it is the latest Champions League turnaround seen at the Bernabeu this season, with Real coming from behind to knock out Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea earlier in the competition.
