Real Madrid stars stranded outside airport as Man City preparations hit unexpected hitch

Real Madrid were left outside Manchester Airport for over half-an-hour as their pre-Champions League semi-final second-leg preparations took an unexpected hit.

Los Blancos flew in from Madrid on Tuesday morning ahead of their clash with Manchester City on Wednesday night, after drawing 1-1 in a tense first-leg affair last week. Vinicius Jr's first-half strike was cancelled out by a moment of brilliance from Kevin De Bruyne to leave the tie on a knife-edge.

However, upon arrival to the north-west, Real's stars were left stunned when their bus failed to arrive on time. Carlo Ancelotti's men were waiting outside Terminal 2 for around 40 minutes, before the bus finally got there to take them to their hotel, the Hyatt Regency, to continue their build-up to the match.
