"I mean, obviously, we know how difficult it is to play here, and we've seen so many games, so many teams struggle to play here. But it's not the first time that we play here. Of course, we analyse them [Real Madrid] at the moment, maybe they are not in really good form. So we took an opportunity for an important three points for us to fight for top eight in the Champions League."
"Of course, we analyse them [Real Madrid] at the moment, maybe they are not in really good form. So we took an opportunity for an important three points for us to fight for top eight in the Champions League. I think we need to recover, well. Obviously, everyone is tired mentally and physically as well. Crystal Palace on Sunday, we need to prepare well and hopefully we go there and have a good game."
Manchester City came from behind to win 2-1 at the Bernabeu and moved up to fourth in the Champions League table. The victory functions as evidence that City can beat any opponent this season and provides momentum ahead of the second half of the campaign. City continue to chase Arsenal at the top of the Premier League and must maintain form domestically. The squad recovered after consecutive defeats and has won four straight matches, scoring 13 goals. Departures of several experienced players have reshaped the team, but the new-look squad and bench depth remain capable of sustaining late-season winning runs. Recovery and preparation are priorities ahead of the Crystal Palace fixture amid mental and physical fatigue concerns.
