Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti, has revealed that his Manchester City counterpart, Pep Guardiola came into the dressing room to congratulate them following their Champions League quarter-final defeat on Wednesday.

The LaLiga champions needed a penalty shoot-out to eliminate City, after the tie ended 1-1 (4-4 on aggregate) at the Etihad.

“You work, sacrifice and win however you can.

“Pep Guardiola is a gentleman, always has been. He congratulated us, wished us good luck and that’s what a real gent does,” Ancelotti told Movistar.
