De Bruyne must lead Man City to Champions League to become a legend - Richards

Kevin De Bruyne "needs to drive" Manchester City on to Champions League glory in order to "become a legend", according to Micah Richards.

De Bruyne was the architect of Real Madrid's downfall in a last 16 first leg clash at Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday night.

The Blancos took the lead in the 60th minute through Isco, but City stepped their game up thereafter, and were eventually rewarded when Gabriel Jesus headed home a teasing De Bruyne cross from the left hand side.
