Belgian star, Kevin De Bruyne broke Atletico Madrid’s resistance after a first leg second half goal.
The Pep Guardiola’s men spent the night trying to shake Atletico Madrid’s net which seemed difficult.
Phil Foden who came from bench,made a sublime pass to De Bruyne to finally reward City for their territorial dominance.
It could be recalled that, Atletico have already knocked out Manchester United in the last 16 this season, while Liverpool fell victim to Diego Simeone’s side when the Reds were the holders in 2019-20.
The Spanish champions will still believe they can cause another surprise in the second leg in Madrid scheduled for April 13.
