Manchester City were knocked out of the Champions League quarter-finals after a 5-4 penalty shoot-out defeat to Real Madrid.

Meanwhile, Rodri also made his return in midfield after being absent against Luton, with the City boss confirming he hadn't suffered an injury and had rested him ahead of a busy run-in. Nathan Ake and John Stones were named on the bench, and the latter replaced Manuel Akanji in extra-time. Erling Haaland The Norwegian goalscorer failed to make it to extra time against Real Madrid, with Pep Guardiola revealing afterwards that Haaland had told his manager he was unable to continue beyond the 90 minutes.

"Erling and Kevin asked me to go out," said Guardiola. "They could not continue, like Manu . They were playing amazing and I'm not a big fan of so many substitutions but Kevin, Erling and Manu asked me to go out because they could not continue."Nathan Ake Nathan Ake has been recovering from an unspecified injury ever since the win in the Manchester derby last month.

Guardiola confirmed that the midfielder had not suffered an injury and was merely not selected to maintain his fitness. Sure enough, he was able to play the full match on Wednesday night.John Stones John Stones is another who missed the win over Luton Town with a potential fitness issue.
