Beating Real Madrid. It just feels different. Especially for Manchester City after the trauma of their dramatic semi-final defeat last season. Pep Guardiola even referenced it in his press conference afterwards, suggesting the pain was still with them.
What a way to get closure. The Madrid mythology was intact following the first leg, a game that hinted at City's superiority only to then suggest Carlo Ancelotti's men retain that rare ability to find a way. This blew that notion away. City were far too good.
Should we be surprised? Twenty-three games unbeaten is one thing, but in front of their own supporters it is 15 wins in a row. This season they have won 6-3 against Manchester United, 4-1 against Arsenal and Liverpool, 3-0 against Bayern Munich.
