But sitting top of the Premier League table, into the semifinals of the FA Cup, and favourites to beat Real Madrid after a 3-3 draw in the first leg last week, there will be a nagging feeling that something almost unimaginable was within their reach.<\/p>\n<p>Real Madrid, 14-times winners and now semifinalists 12 times in 14 years, have the Champions League pedigree, but City were by far the better team over the two fixtures and dominated the game on their home turf. Guardiola\u2019s team made 424 passes in the final third compared to Real Madrid\u2019s 38 while registering 33 shots over the 120 minutes to Real Madrid\u2019s eight. The Spanish side didn\u2019t win a corner until midway through extra time, and from half-time onwards it looked very much like Carlo Ancelotti and his players were desperate for penalties.<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rudiger scored the penalty that secured the win for Real Madrid \u00a0 Pep Guardiola insisted he had \u201cno regrets\u201d after watching Real Madrid knock his Manchester City side out of the Champions League on penalties on Wednesday, but the thought of what might have been should take a while to get over.
