For Manchester City, the quadruple is still on and, significantly, a neurosis has been laid to rest.
Wednesday's second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, for a time, provided another nervous occasion for Man City, but in the end it prevailed, beating Borussia Dortmund 2–1 on the night and 4–2 on aggregate to reach its first Champions League semifinal since 2016, and its first under Pep Guardiola.
Guardiola, for whom this will also be a first semifinal in five years, has become a specialist in unexpected Champions League exits, and for a time on Wednesday it looked like he might suffer another one.
