It was the biggest match of the round. A lot of attention was drawn to the fact that the two teams, which are considered strong contenders for the championship this season, met in the quarterfinals. Considering the recent atmosphere, Manchester City’s advantage was expected, but Munich has always been a formidable opponent to the extent that there is a saying ‘I’m not worried about Munich’.

It read, “Out of the Glazers, Sheikh Mansour, all dictators! Football belongs to all!” It was a sniping of all the owners who shake the roots of the transfer market with enormous capital.
Manchester City fans reacted immediately. According to Miguel Delaney of the British media ‘The Independent’, Manchester City fans who saw the racket booed the Munich fans and shouted “Sheikh Mansour, our king!”
