Real Madrid fans share Man City’s chances of completing a UCL comeback
Supporters outside the Bernabéu were asked to rate Pep Guardiola’s team’s chances of overturning Madrid’s 3-0 Champions League lead – and the answers were clear.
With Real Madrid carrying a commanding 3-0 lead into Tuesday’s Champions League last-16 second leg at the Etihad Stadium, belief around the Bernabéu stadium is unmistakable. The return of Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham to the squad has only strengthened that confidence among supporters.
Ahead of kickoff, we headed outside the Bernabéu to ask fans a simple question: what percentage chance does Manchester City have of pulling off a sensational comeback? The answers were quick, blunt and often accompanied by a smile. Most gave the English champions slim to no chance of turning the tie around.
The consensus was clear. With Madrid three goals ahead and key players back in the squad, many fans believe the quarterfinals – and two dates with (almost certainly) Bayern Munich – are already within touching distance. What do you think?
