PEP Guardiola admitted Manchester City will have to play a "perfect" game when they face the "massive" task of overturning a 3-0 deficit against Real Madrid in the Uefa Champions League tonight.
Guardiola’s side are on the brink of elimination after the last-16 first leg loss in Madrid last week. City must produce one of the greatest fightbacks in the history of the Champions League to avoid being knocked out by Real for a third successive season.
It is a daunting challenge against the 15-time European champions and City boss Guardiola knows only a sublime display in the second leg at the Etihad Stadium will give his team a chance of a miraculous escape.
"I have to admit the task is massive. To score more than three goals against Madrid is not easy," Guardiola said yesterday.

The board's hardest decision: When leadership must change
THE departure of a CEO almost always attracts public attention. Such transitions inevitably invite speculation about personalities, performance and internal dynamics. Yet the deeper governance story rarely lies in the headlines themselves. It lies in the board’s decision.
