Man City player ratings vs Real Madrid: Kevin De Bruyne and Gabriel Jesus superb

Ederson pulled off a great save from Benzema - echoes of Joe Hart four years ago. 8

Walker caused plenty of problems going forward and his pace meant he recovered well 7

Laporte limped off with an injury and City’s defensive composure limped off with him 6

Otamendi included for his aerial prowess but simply added to his collection of mistakes 4

Mendy terribly sloppy first half, cleaned up after the break but to no effect 5

De Bruyne once he started  creating, a goal was inevitable, brilliant assist, calm penalty 9

Rodri throwing his weight around but he and Otamendi hit in a terrible fix to hand Real the lead 6

Gundogan neat and clever at first, but started giving the ball away 6

Mahrez had three decent chances but couldn’t bag one. But he did stretch Madrid in second half 7

Jesus best attacking player on the pitch with De Bruyne, deserved his goal and then teased red card out of Ramos 9

Bernardo gave everything he had and helped to disrupt Real’s flow 7

Substitutes

Fernandinho (for Laporte, 32) best defender, again 7

Sterling (for Bernardo, 73) Won the penalty 7
