Man City fans react to Fernandinho's yellow card in draw vs Shakhtar Donetsk

Man City fans have all been reacting to their side's 1-1 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League this evening.

The Blues came into the contest knowing that a victory would see them progress through to the knockout stages of the Champions League and whilst that didn't happen, Pep Guardiola's men are assured of a place in the knockout stages thanks to results elsewhere.

City took the lead in the second half when Gabriel Jesus assisted Ilkay Gundogan's goal as Guardiola's men went in front.

Shakhtar, however, showed their resilience and turned the tide, before Manor Solomon netted after a ball in from the right.

City couldn't find the winner in the end and even seemingly suffered a blow when Fernandinho was yellow carded late on, something which will see him miss matchday six of the Champions League groupstage.

However, with City through to the knockout stages thanks to the draw and guaranteed top spot in Group C, fans have countered that notion as the 34-year-old will now be set for a rest when the final group game rolls around.

Here is the best of the reaction.
