Man City player ratings vs Real Madrid: 3/10 trio flop as Pep Guardiola’s side humiliated | Football | Sport
Feb 20, 2025
Manchester City suffered a humiliating loss away to Real Madrid as they were dumped out of the Champions League at the play-off stage.
It was all about Kylian Mbappe for the Spanish side, who netted two goals before the break, including a sumptuous lob just five minutes in, before completing his hat-trick midway through the second period.
New signing Nico Gonzalez added a late consolation goal deep into added time, but it unsurprisingly wasn’t enough to spark a comeback.
The 2022/23 Treble winners failed to register a shot on target until the 76th minute during what was a humbling evening back in Madrid for Pep Guardiola.
Express Sport hands out player ratings after City’s defeat…
Ederson – 4
Caught in no man’s land for the opener and parried a number of simple saves back into dangerous areas throughout the game. Couldn’t have done much for Mbappe’s second, but was certainly slow to sort his feet out for the third.
Abdukodir Khusanov – 6
Tasked with trying to quieten Vinicius Junior and despite some early wobbles, the young Uzbek certainly held his own. Unlikely to be deployed as a right-back too often, but he’s certainly a bright spark for the Blues moving forward. Covers the ground well and has an eye for a pass.
Ruben Dias – 6
