Ruben Dias has conceded that he would have liked his team to be travelling to Spain for their Champions League semi-final second leg against Real Madrid next week with a greater scoreline advantage.
Manchester City were dominant and had a number of opportunities to score more than four on the night. But last year’s finalists shipped three goals in a single game for the first time in the competition since the 6-3 win over RB Leipzig in September’s group stage opener.
However, Dias said there is still a good mood around camp after securing the win. “It's one final won and we need to win the second one next week in Madrid - the spirit is positive,” he told mancity.com.
