Manchester City defender Ruben Dias insisted his side weren’t left frustrated despite conceding three goals in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid.
City edged a thrilling encounter at the Etihad on Tuesday night to ensure they will take a slender advantage with them to the Bernabeu next week. Goals from Kevin De Bruyne, Gabriel Jesus, Phil Foden and Bernardo Silva helped them to a 4-3 victory, with Karim Benzema’s double and Vinicius Junior’s goal keeping the Spanish giants in the tie.
The Blues had looked to be on course to run away with the tie after racing into a 2-0 lead just 11 minutes in, but they found themselves continually pegged back by Carlo Ancelotti’s side. With just one goal separating the two sides, it’s still all to play for heading into the second leg.
