And now to finish the job.
Uncompromising in the first leg, won 3-1 on the Copenhagen pitch after an overwhelming domination, Manchester City is already a foot and a half into the quarter-finals when they host the Danes on their pitch, Wednesday in the round of 16 second leg of the Champions League.
Undefeated in the group stage, the Cityzens continued their perfect run in this edition, notably supported by a stellar Kevin De Bruyne (one goal, two assists).
They seem unstoppable in recent weeks, whether on the European or domestic scene.
Undefeated for three months in all competitions, Pep Guardiola's men are hot on Liverpool's heels at the top of the Premier League.
Coming out of a tough group behind Bayern Munich, can the Danish champion overthrow a second Manchester club this season, after their success at home against United (4-3)?
This will not be easy against the defending champion, who is aiming for nothing other than a new crown at the end of the season.
The match between Manchester City and Copenhagen is scheduled to kick off at 9 p.m. this Wednesday March 6.
The match will be broadcast live on beIN Sports 1.
