During their triumphant 2023-2024 Champions League campaign, Real Madrid defeated Manchester City in the Quarter-Finals after a dramatic penalty shoot-out. Despite City’s clear dominance in possession, shots on target, and other match statistics, it was Los Blancos who ultimately celebrated victory. Domestically, Pep Guardiola achieved a historic fourth consecutive Premier League title for the 2023-2024 season, while Real Madrid also secured the La Liga championship. In recent years, the clash between Madrid and City has become one of the most significant and highly anticipated encounters in European football.
