However, the Cityzens turned up the heat and got on the scoresheet when Gabriel Jesus nodded a KDB cross past Courtois.City then went on to take the lead and added another valuable away goal to their kitty after Raheem Sterling was brought down inside the area by a reckless Carvajal. Kevin De Bruyne converted from the spot to make it 2-1.Real Madrid are down by a goal already and will be without Sergio Ramos who will miss out after getting red-carded in the previous game.

The Algerian was at his best, slaloming past defenders and getting into dangerous areas. He made sure the Real Madrid defence wasn't afforded any sense of comfort or security by constantly constantly putting them up to test.Though Mahrez couldn't get on the scoresheet, he combined with the rest of City's attackers with aplomb and was easily one of their best players on the night. With Sergio Ramos now unavailable and Mahrez in top form, Real Madrid will need to get numbers in behind despite having to try to reduce a deficit.Best dribbling skills of Riyad Mahrez 2019/2020 @Mahrez22 pic.twitter.com/a30B5HRlVX— Riyad Mahrez Comps (Fan) (@MahrezComps) July 29, 2020#4 Vinicius Jr.Will Vinicius start?Vinicius Jr. once again justified the hype surrounding him in the first-leg and he was the standout performer for the Blancos by a mile. Vinicius was excellent driving forward and did well in keeping the City defence occupied and gave Kyle Walker a great deal to think about through the length of the game.It was he who set up Isco for the opening goal of the game. However, with Eden Hazard fully fit, Vinicius might start this one on the bench. But he is almost certain to get involved at some point and his pace and technique could prove to be the difference against tired City legs.Vinicius Jr | Best Moments & Skills 2019/2020. pic.twitter.com/OOSXjszrMm— Tío Del Madrid 🇪🇸 (@tiodelmadrid) August 4, 2020Also read: 5 most unexpected winners of the UEFA Champions League
