Man City v Real Madrid - as it happened

FT: Man City 2-1 R Madrid (agg 4-2)!! RM are out of the CL thanks to two shocking errors by Varane. Sterling and Jesus scored those goals either side of Benzema's leveller. We don't like criticising players, but Varane was terrible tonight as were most of the RM back line. Man C were the better team and should have even won by more. Man C are in the QFs in Portugal. That's all from us, thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
