What third goal, are you kidding me? After the game in Manchester, everything was clear. After the first goal today, everything was clear even to those who had never heard of the Champions League before. The only thing I regret is that for the last 15 minutes, all the players were literally waiting for the referee to blow the final whistle. The state of affairs is that City is an ordinary club for Real, one of the crowd, so there is no fundamental desire to score as many goals as possible.

Even when we watched the first leg at Manchester City's home it was clear that Pep Guardiola's men did not have enough mentality when facing Real Madrid.
The second leg was much easier for Real Madrid and that's what you say because they will be much stronger when they are allowed to play more openly and Manchester City lose concentration because they focus too much on possession.

Letting Real Madrid play under pressure is dangerous because this team is always able to put pressure on the opponent even when they are in difficult conditions.
Pep was defeated again by Ancelotti's strategy and the old man is indeed smart in taking advantage of the conditions.
