Manchester City achieved a positive result with a 1-1 draw against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu, the stronghold of the Meringue, before the upcoming confrontation in the second leg, the next four, at the Etihad Stadium, the stronghold of City.
--According to the French newspaper L’Equipe, the Eurovision Song Contest, which will be held today, Saturday, in Liverpool, has caused the postponement of the Manchester City match against Everton, in the Premier League, to be held on Sunday, in the Everton stronghold.
The newspaper indicated that the postponement of the match disturbed Guardiola, who complained about this postponement, given that it would affect the number of days of rest and recovery for Manchester City before the fateful confrontation against Real Madrid, next Wednesday, in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final.
Manchester City leads the English Premier League with 82 points, one point behind Arsenal, runner-up with 81 points, but City has one less match left.
