Manchester City's sporting director Txiki Begiristain criticized the results of the draw for the Champions League quarter-finals, which paired the Citizens with Real Madrid.
Marca quoted Begiristain as saying:
Txiki Begiristain
What a shame. These balloons are boring, the same thing happens. The draw is the same as last year. They only replaced Liverpool with Arsenal. We will try to remember what happened last season and that we managed to reach the final.
He also added that Real always performs well in the Champions League.
The draw for the stage took place today, March 15. The first leg of the quarter-finals is scheduled for April 9, with the return games on April 16.
Earlier, Manchester City's head coach Pep Guardiola referred to Real as the kings of the Champions League.
