Spanish Real Madrid tied with its English guest, Manchester City, 3-3, at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, in an exciting summit in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Manchester City surprised its Madrid rival by scoring a very early goal following less than two minutes with a free kick, which Bernardo Silva shot in a way that deceived Ukrainian Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.

But the Madrid team succeeded in equalizing by taking advantage of an own goal in the 12th minute, which Manchester City defender Ruben Diaz accidentally scored into his own net, following changing the path of a shot by Frenchman Eduardo Camavinga, the Real Madrid player.

In the 14th minute, Brazilian striker Rodrigo rushed from the middle of the field and shot a ball from inside the penalty area that changed its course following colliding with Manuel Akanji’s foot, before entering the goal, giving Real Madrid the lead with a second goal.

Manchester City equalized with a missile shot by its star Phil Foden in the right scissors in the 66th minute, with the English player scoring his fifth goal in 7 Champions League matches this season.

With another missile shot, Manchester City defender Josko Gvardiol scored the third goal for Manchester City in the 71st minute.

The excitement continued following Vinicius Junior played a cross ball, and Federico Valverde met with a powerful shot into the net. Real Madrid tied once more in the 79th minute, postponing the decision between the two teams until the second leg, which will be held next week at Etihad Stadium, the stronghold of the defending champion English giants.
