The rematch between Man City and Real Madrid was completely different from the first leg between the two teams. At the Etihad Stadium, Man City showed their superior strength to eliminate the defending champions and convincingly advance to the final.
Coach Pep Guardiola's players entered the match with great enthusiasm. They made Real Madrid cower and chase the ball helplessly. Goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois had to work hard from the start of the match.
According to Whoscored statistics, Man City's ball possession rate was up to more than 70% in the first half. Real Madrid only had one shot in the first half, while Man City had 12 shots.
Barnardo Silva scored 2 goals in the first half.
The goal for the home team was inevitable. In the 23rd minute, receiving a pass from Kevin De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva fired a decisive shot to open the score for the home team.
The goal made Man City even more excited. Meanwhile, Real Madrid could not advance beyond half the field. The most dangerous situation for the away team came from a long-range shot that hit the crossbar in the 34th minute.
However, when the Spanish team was still regretful, Man City scored again. After Courtois blocked Ilkay Gundogan's shot, Silva was there to double the gap.
Man City beat Real Madrid in the second leg of the semi-final.
In the second half, Real Madrid tried to push up their formation to find an equalizer. However, David Alaba's dangerous free kick in the 51st minute was the best chance Real Madrid created in front of Man City's goal.
The home team maintained a compact formation. They played slowly and waited for their opponents to make a mistake. Man City were more cautious, learning from last season's semi-final. This time, they did not let Real Madrid turn the tables.
In the 76th minute, Man City ended Real Madrid's hopes. From De Bruyne's free kick, the ball missed Manuel Akanji's head before hitting Eder Militao and going into the net. Before the end of the match, the home team scored another goal with a goal from Julian Alvarez.
Beating Real Madrid 4-0 (5-1 aggregate after 2 matches), Man City won the right to enter the Champions League final. Coach Pep Guardiola's team's opponent is Inter Milan.
