Madrid (dpa) - Real Madrid is in the Champions League before the knockout phase. Without the German national soccer player Toni Kroos, the royal team lost the first leg at Bernabeu Stadium against Manchester City 1: 2 (0: 0).
Isco had put Zinedine Zidane's team in the lead (60th minute). But Gabriel Jesus (78th) and the former Wolfsburg Bundesliga professional Kevin De Bruyne (83rd / foul penalty) turned the game in favor of the team of ex-Bayern coach Pep Guardiola. The still reigning English champion thus got an excellent starting position for the second leg on March 17. At Real Sergio Ramos saw red in the 86th minute because of an emergency brake.
