Raphael Varane's first blow came after just nine minutes. Then the Frenchman chatted with the ball and Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus stole it and found Raheem Sterling in the penalty area.

With just under half an hour played, Real Madrid's star striker Karim Benzema still made sure that the double encounter came to life when he met Rodrygo's perfect post with his forehead.

After that goal, only Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Raul have scored more goals in Champions League history.

A new mistake by Varane

Both teams had some goal chances, but there was no full hit until Varane made a mistake again.

The hill would nod the ball back to goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, but the nod became too loose. Jesus picked up the ball and finished nicely to 2-1.

Thus, the score was 2-1 in the match and 4-2 overall.

Curtain for Real Madrid who have now failed to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League two seasons in a row. It has not happened since 2004 / 2005-2009 / 2010 when they missed the quarterfinals six years in a row.
