Real Madrid lost 2-1 to Manchester City at home, so it ended just as I expected.
I can't say the match was of very high quality because I don't think it was an enjoyable game.
With this defeat, the question marks surrounding Xabi Alonso at Real Madrid have increased even more.

Another match that caught my attention was Borussia Dortmund vs. Bodo Glimt.
Even though Dortmund took the lead twice, Bodo Glimt managed to equalize the match and secured a point in a tough away game like Dortmund.
Real Madrid losing their last two home games is unacceptable. They dropped points and lost both in the league and the Champions League. I agree that Manchester City is a strong team, but Real Madrid needed to win this match. It's time for the strong Real Madrid to step up again. Questions about manager Xabi are growing daily. Whether he's a good manager for the team is now being questioned.

Real Madrid are currently seventh in the Champions League standings. They have only two games left and must finish in the top eight. Otherwise, they risk elimination after their playoff match. I would have expected a team like Real Madrid to finish in the top three, but they are currently seventh.
