Real Madrid vs. Manchester City: Goals, Highlights from 2015 ICC Clash

After an end-to-end opening 20 minutes that saw Yaya Toure denied a penalty after being wiped out by Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas, Karim Benzema gave the Spanish giants the lead with a sublime volley from Gareth Bale's right-wing cross.

And it didn't take long for Real to double their lead, with Joe Hart unable to keep out Cristiano Ronaldo's close-range effort.

In what was fast becoming a disastrous first half for City, debutant Fabian Delph was also taken off with an apparent hamstring injury, just moments before Real's opener.

Pepe then added a third, heading home from Isco's precise corner.

But City weren't to go into half-time empty-handed. Sergio Ramos was harshly adjudged to have handled in the box, and Toure dispatched the resulting penalty.

Into the second half, and Denis Cheryshev added a fourth for last year's La Liga runners-up, turning home from close range after some nice work from Isco.
