Pep Guardiola\u2019s side laid siege to Madrid\u2019s goal with the hosts happy to sit back and soak up the pressure.<br \/>\nThis allowed Kyle Walker, Rodri, Jack Grealish and John Stones to have shots at Madri\u2019s goal but they all went wide. Erling Haaland had the best chances to put his side ahead only for Thibaut Courtois to expertly deny him on two occasions.<br \/>\nHowever, City eventually breached the visitor\u2019s defence in the 23rd minute when Kevin De Bruyne found Silva and the Portuguese beat Courtois with a vicious shot at the near post. Toni Kroos soon fired a warning shot with a long-range strike which Ederson had to save but City remained in control and added their second in the 37th minute when Silva headed a saved Gundogan shot into the back of the net.<br \/>\nMadrid looked out of ideas and threatened little even after the break and could only muster up half-chances.<br \/>\nThe game was effectively over as a De Bryne freekick took a deflection off Manuel Akanji and hit Militao before nestling into the back of the net in the 76th minute.<br \/>\nJulian Alvarez added their 4th in the added time to underline their dominance.<br \/>\nManchester City will now look to win their first Champions League when they face Inter Milan in the final on 11th June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISLAMABAD Manchester City dominated Champions League holders Real Madrid at home to reach the final of the competition for the second time in the club\u2019s history.
