Match report as Manchester City secured the result they needed against Atletico Madrid to progress to the semi-finals of the Champions League as Felipe was sent off for the hosts; Pep Guardiola's side will now face Real Madrid over two legs for a place in the final


Hostile action at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium


Manchester City's ill-tempered goalless draw away to Atletico Madrid was enough to secure a hard-fought 1-0 aggregate victory in their Champions League quarter-final.

Leading from the first leg thanks to Kevin De Bruyne's goal, Man City retained their advantage in front of a boisterous Wanda Metropolitano crowd to progress to the last four.

There were nervy moments late on as Atletico pushed hard for the goal despite Felipe's red card in stoppage time for a second bookable offence.

Ederson was forced into a 102nd minute save from substitute Angel Correa to ensure it is Man City who will play Real Madrid in the semi-final.
