And finally, Man City lost to Real Madrid at their home ground, in the first leg with a score of 2-3. {In fact, Haaland had opened the first goal very well, really in the early minutes. And made the situation quite worrying for Real Madrid. But in the second half, Real Madrid was able to rise and finally turn things around. Here, Haaland has played very well, 2 goals, unfortunately, they could not ward off attacks from Real Madrid until they turned into defeat.

In the first half, Manchester City really made it difficult for Real Madrid, whether it was when Manchester City attacked or when Real Madrid attacked. Because in the first half Manchester City showed good performance in their defense and front lines. That's why in the first half the Real Madrid players had great difficulty controlling the course of the match. But in the second half Ancelotti seemed to change his strategy and found a gap in the Manchester City players. That's why the game really changed drastically and Real Madrid was able to dominate the game very well. So with this, Mbappe was able to score an equalizer for Real Madrid in the 60th minute. Then after that Halland was able to put Manchester City ahead again, thanks to the goal he scored via a penalty kick.

But unfortunately after that Real Madrid player Brahim Diaz scored another equalizer for Real Madrid. That's why after that the match went very hard. However, because the Manchester City defenders were probably tired, the Real Madrid players were not closely guarded, so when the second half of the match was about to end, Bellingham was able to score the third goal for Real Madrid and this became the winning goal for Real Madrid in that match. So in this match the Manchester City players actually played quite well on the front lines. But their defensive line experienced a decline in performance in the second half, so Manchester City had to concede 3 goals. Maybe Pep should improve his defense line well, so that when he faces Real Madrid again in the second leg, his team's performance can be even more stable.
