(Video) Watch: Manchester City vs Real Madrid (4-0) | All Goals & Extended Highlights | UEFA Champions League 2023

Bernardo Silva’s first-half double inspired Manchester City to a dominant 4-0 victory over Real Madrid to book a place in the Champions League final.

Resuming after a 1-1 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu last week, Pep Guardiola’s side made all the early running as they were roared on by a raucous home crowd.

The reigning European champions were indebted to Thibaut Courtois for two magnificent close-range stops from Erling Haaland but the Belgium goalkeeper had no chance when Kevin De Bruyne’s throughball caught Carlo Ancelotti’s side napping and Silva smashed home.

Madrid responded well to going behind and Toni Kroos clattered the crossbar from long range before Courtois saved from Ilkay Gundogan and could only look on as the diminutive Silva headed into his net.

The visitors enjoyed more of the ball after halftime as City played with composure and control, eager to avoid the sort of unravelling that took them down spectacularly against these opponents last season.

Ederson saved well from a David Alaba free-kick but his opposite number was forced into more heroics when Gundogan’s backheel released Haaland and he diverted the shot against the top of his crossbar with his leg.

Madrid’s race was conclusively run inside the final quarter of an hour when Eduardo Camavinga was booked for a crude foul on Jack Grealish and Eder Militao diverted De Bruyne’s free-kick into his own net.

Julian Alvarez replaced Haaland and combined with fellow substitutes Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden to put the icing on the cake and book City’s tickets to Istanbul.
