The Straits Times

The Spanish giants, record 15-time European champions, will host City in the first leg at the Santiago Bernabeu in March before travelling to England for the second leg a week later.
The clubs have already played each other this season, with Pep Guardiola's City winning 2-1 in Madrid in December during the league phase, in which the English Premier League club finished eighth, with Real just below in ninth.
That allowed City, Champions League winners in 2023, to advance straight to the last 16 while Madrid had to come through the knockout phase playoffs, where they beat Benfica 3-1 on aggregate.
