The Manchester City put a foot and half in the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League after golear to the Bayern Munich home (3-0). The ones of Pep Guardiola took advantage of the Bavarian defensive fragility and the inspiration of Bernardo Silva to resolve a party that, in the previous, lucía like the more parejo of the four keys of quarter-finals. The Tuesday, the luso went out with a partidazo that, again, justified the insistence of Xavi Hernández in ficharle the past summer.

To these heights, his exit of the City course to the FC Barcelona is almost utopian, since still they subtract him two years of agreement and the City will not leave him go out by less than his value of market (80 million euros). In 2022, the one of Lisbon opened the door to his possible traspaso, but the finances culés denied any posiblidad to try negotiate. This year, the financial panorama is much more complex, without the posiblidad to activate 'crowbars' that allow to do box for fichar.

Goal and assistance of Bernardo to sentence to the Bayern

The Tuesday, Bernardo Silva added a goal and an assistance that promoted the goleada 'sky blue'. The Portuguese was a headache irremediable for Alphonso Davies. Further to surpass him in speed, the Canadian lució powerless in front of the mobility and the good handle of balloon of the luso, the one who beside Kevin Of Bruyne found eases for lastimar to the Germans by right.

In the minute 27, a pass of the '20' found to Rodri free of mark. Without thinking it too much, the Spanish took out a zurdazo imparable to open the marker. In the second part, the venues took advantage of the errors of Dayot Upamecano to clear the party. In the 70, Grealish anticipated to the central French and yielded to Erling Haaland. With time and space, the '9' centred to the second stick, where Bernardo appeared totally only to mark of head.

I cancel ingresó on the end and the Barça does not lose him of sight

The goal was the prize to his big party. Thomas Tuchel took out to Davies in the 81', already with the party cleared and the Canadian melted after a day in which Silva him desquició. Joao Cancel ingresó in his place, leaving served the table for an audible pitada of all the Etihad Stadium to the Portuguese side, yielded to the Bayern to the end of season. With few possibilities to remain in Munich, the defender has to return to the City in summer and the Barça, maybe, can manage a cession by a year in front of the insistence of Xavi to incorporate a right-handed side.
