Man City have made bad decisions
Striker Erling Haaland scored a brace for Man City, including the opening goal in the 19th minute and the second from the penalty spot in the 80th minute. These goals were expected to give Man City an advantage over rivals Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League play-off round. But they wasted it due to defensive errors.
Coach Pep Guardiola is not happy when Man City wastes a victory within reach
In which, striker Mbappe equalized 1-1 for Real Madrid in the 60th minute, Brahim Diaz equalized 2-2 in the 86th minute, before Jude Bellingham sealed the 3-2 victory for the away team in the 90+2 minute.
In these goals, Man City's midfield and defense once again revealed too many mistakes, allowing Real Madrid players to take advantage of scoring opportunities to reverse the situation spectacularly.
"This has happened many times this season. Many times. It's just bad decisions, that's all," coach Pep Guardiola expressed in a not-so-happy mood on Prime Video Sport channel after the match.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid coach Ancelotti affirmed: "We deserved to win. That was the right way. The season has just started again for us."
According to coach Ancelotti, in the second leg, Real Madrid will have the services of two key players, Toni Rudiger and David Alaba, in defense. "We need them," said the experienced Italian strategist.
Through that, this coach also showed great confidence that Real Madrid will finish off Man City in the second leg at 3am on February 20 to win a ticket to the Champions League round of 16.
In the other Champions League play-off first legs, PSG notably beat Brest 3-0 to put one foot in the next round. Similarly, Dortmund beat Sporting Lisbon also 3-0. In the remaining match, Juventus beat PSV 2-1.
