I have to thank our crowd, who were with us from first to last \u2013 we, and they, are all pulling together for the same objective.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We conceded early and I think what was vital was knowing how to cope, knowing how to fight back and score two in a matter of a couple of minutes. Scoring like we did lifted us but I think we dropped our intensity, we let them off the hook, didn&#8217;t press well enough. And City have really good players; they work really hard. We need to be fuelled by a sense of &#8216;revenge&#8217; and go to Manchester full of hunger to qualify for the semi-final.\u00a0 Overall this was a great football match.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>City will be keen to get their number nine involved next time, as Erling Haaland hasn&#8217;t scored in any of his three career appearances against Real Madrid (eight shots and six shots on target, 0 goals).
