But the Turin side didn\u2019t\nfalter and kept attacking, equalizing themselves from the penalty. A rather\ncontroversial handball by Depay was ruled and Cristiano Ronaldo was merciless,\nleaving more excitement to come in the second half. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ronaldo did score once again after a spectacular\nstrike from long distance leaving goalkeeper Anthony Lopes defeated. But it was\nall the Italian side had strength for leaving the Champions League title out of\nVecchia Signora\u2019s reach once again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second match of the evening, Manchester City\ndispatched Real Madrid with relative ease by 2-1, 4-2 on aggregate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The story of the evening revolved around Real defender <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.com\/raphael-varane\/profil\/spieler\/164770\">Raphael Varane<\/a>. His two mistakes led directly to City scoring both of their goals. The Citizens took the lead early in the 9th minute after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.com\/raheem-sterling\/profil\/spieler\/134425\">Raheem Sterling<\/a> scored. But Los Blancos quickly brought the game on level terms when Karim Benzema scored an equalizer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the second Varane mistake sealed the deal for Manchester City when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.com\/gabriel-jesus\/profil\/spieler\/363205\">Gabriel Jesus<\/a> showed maturity and composure to put his team back in the lead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Real\u2019s defense was perfect after the restart but this\ntime they were missing their captain Sergio Ramos. They only shot the ball on\ntarget four times, opposed to 20 shots that the Citizens took.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first part of the last-16 2020 Champions League matches provides us with some bittersweet results.
