Real Madrid, Manchester City Leave Fans Breathless After Draw in UCL QF 1st Leg

The crowd watching the UEFA Champions League Quarterfinals in Madrid, Spain on Tuesday got to watch one of the most exciting first-leg matches in championship history.

Real Madrid and Manchester City scored a trio of highlight-reel goals in the second half while battling to a 3-3 draw.

Manchester City's Phil Foden started out the second half by knotting the score at two goals apiece.

Defender Josko Gvardiol then scored a memorable first Manchester City goal to give the sky blues the lead.

City only held onto the lead for eight minutes before Real Madrid's Federico Valverde tied the score.

Real Madrid earned a flurry of shots in the final minutes, but a late go-ahead attempt by Brahim Díaz was blocked before it could make it to the net.

The draw still means that Real Madrid earned redemption after losing 4-0 to City in the second leg of last year's quarterfinals, and that fans got to watch a gripping match from start to finish.

City fans will now keep an eye out for news of Foden, who left the game early with an injury. The midfielder will be key to Manchester City's hopes of repeating the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League treble.
