Grealish predicts City will be "unstoppable" at home against Real.

Manchester City will be "unstoppable" at home in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid, according to winger Jack Grealish.

 

City drew 1-1 in the first leg in Madrid on Tuesday after Kevin De Bruyne's stunning low strike cancelled out Real's opener from Vinicius Jr.

The reigning Premier League champions have been unbeaten at home since November and will look to extend that streak in the second leg on May 17.
"At the Etihad, we feel unstoppable," Grealish said, according to BT Sport. "We came here to try to win, but going a goal down in a place like this shows our character."

"In the end, I believe it was a fair outcome." They had their chances, and we had ours."

City is chasing the treble, having qualified for the FA Cup final and leading the league by one point with four games remaining.

Grealish stated that the team has "learned so much" since being eliminated by Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-finals last season.
"This year, we have a new team with new players... "We have the ideal mix of experience and world-class young players," the England international added.

Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois said the second leg will be like a "final" for the 14-time Champions League champions.

"Next week will be like a final, and we are quite good at winning finals," Courtois explained. "Hopefully, we can keep that mentality even though it is at City and will be difficult for us."
