    The Frenchman was slotted through by Rodrygo but still had plenty to do. After skilfully turning inside Josko Gvardiol and leaving the City defender on the ground, he calmly struck the ball home to make it 2-0 to Madrid on the night and 5-2 on aggregate. In his celebration, he seemed to point at the floored defender and made a hand gesture mocking Gvardiol's desperate slide that failed to stop him.
