Real Madrid 1-2 Man City PLAYER RATINGS: Who was exemplary in midfield? Which star was colossal late on? And who was anonymous for the hosts?

Manchester City increased pressure on Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso after coming from behind to earn a 2-1 victory in the Champions League at the Bernabeu.

Alonso had come into the match amid claims in Spain that his job was at risk if Real Madrid suffered defeat, with their task made all the harder with Kylian Mbappe unable to feature from the bench due to injury.

The pressure looked like it might ease when Rodyrgo put the hosts ahead in the first half, firing in following a pass from Jude Bellingham in the 28th minute.
