Haaland goalless as Real Madrid beat Manchester City 3-0
Pep Guardiola's Manchester City fell to Real Madrid as the Blancos won the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 3-0. Without Kylian Mbappé and with Vinicius Junior missing a penalty, Federico Valverde stepped up as the striker: a hat-trick for the Uruguayan midfielder, the first player to score three goals in a Champions League match in Real Madrid's history.
Erling Haaland remains goalless in the Champions League, continuing his month-long goal drought. He did not have one of his best games: 10 touches in 82 minutes until he was substituted, and only 3 passes made.
