The streets leading to the stadium were thronged with Madrid supporters wearing the famous white colours, as the team bus drove past, heading for the ground, which is nearing the completion of renovation works.

Real Madrid lost the first leg in Manchester 4-3, meaning they require a win tonight to avoid elimination (note there are no away goals in the tournament this year, meaning Real Madrid’s away goals will not count double in the event of a tied score on aggregate at full time).
