Real Madrid snatch dramatic Champions League win over Manchester City
Ederson scored the winning penalty as Real Madrid beat Manchester City 4-3 on penalties to reach the Champions League semi-finals.
The match finished 5-5 on aggregate after extra-time, with Phil Foden and Nacho Fernandez scoring for City and Antonio Rudiger equalising for Madrid.
The game was a thrilling end-to-end encounter, with both teams having chances to win it in normal time. City took the lead through Foden's early goal, but Madrid hit back through Nacho Fernandez to level the tie on aggregate.
The visitors then took the lead in extra-time through Rudiger's header, but City equalised again through Rodri's penalty. The match went to a penalty shootout, and Ederson scored the winning spot-kick to send Madrid through.
The result is a major blow for City, who were looking to reach the Champions League final for the second time in three years. It is also a disappointing end to the season for Pep Guardiola's side, who have won just one of their last four games.
Madrid, meanwhile, will be delighted to have reached the semi-finals, especially after losing the first leg 4-3 at home. They will now face either Chelsea or Real Betis in the last four.
