Manchester City appeared to be in control of the game, with fans ecstatically cheering after Riyad Mahrez of Manchester City made his move and scored with 17 minutes remaining. The Manchester City fans’ joy was short-lived, however, because Rodrygo made a move and scored twice in the 90th and 91st minutes to force extra time.
Real Madrid benefited greatly from the extra time as Manchester City’s Ruben Dias fouled Karim Benzema. Karim Benzema then scored his 15th Champions League goal of the season from the penalty spot to put Manchester City down in extra time. On the 28th of May 2022, Real Madrid will face Liverpool in Paris to determine who would be the European Champions.
As a matter of fact, many football pundits thinks that Josep Pep Guardiola overthought the game against Madrid by taking off his best players at the early stages.
