Manchester City centre-half Rúben Dias has broken his silence following his side's capitulation in their Champions League semifinal tie against Real Madrid.

Dias and his Man City teammates were subjected to a heartbreaking Champions League exit on Wednesday night as Real Madrid staged arguably the best comebacks in recent history.

The former Benfica defender, who played full throttle in Wednesday's encounter, took to Twitter to portray a positive outlook despite the crashing nature of the results against Madrid.

Leading 4-3 after the first leg, Man City needed to avoid defeat at the Santiago Bernabeu to secure a back-to-back Champions League final appearance.

Their dreams were further enhanced when Mahrez scored in the second half with Madrid on the verge of exit and no shots as at the 89th minute the resurrection happened.

Two quickfire goals from Rodrygo Goes levelled the score on aggregate, pushing the tie to extra time before talisman Benzema coolly slot home from the penalty spot to steal a march on Man City.

Man City would have to snap out of the disappointing results within the shortest possible time as they face Newcastle United in a tricky encounter on Sunday with Liverpool breathing down their necks for the Premier League title.
