'We've got to be positive' - Phil Foden outlines Man City confidence for Real Madrid Champions League semi-final

Manchester City's chances of reaching the Champions League final are strong, according to Phil Foden, who is taking encouragement from last season's trip to Real Madrid at the same stage.

City travel to Spain this week to play their Champions League semi-final first leg at the Bernabeu, looking to reach a second final in three years. They were knocked out at this stage last year by Real Madrid, winning the first leg at the Etihad but collapsing late on at the Bernabeu to allow Madrid to progress and win another European Cup.

Despite that disappointment, City know how to beat Madrid over two legs having won in style away in 2020 and then at home behind closed doors, and winger Foden says the confidence and belief in the squad is high.
