Champions League: Madrid lose to Wolfsburg as PSG and Man City draw

Real Madrid suffered a shock loss to Wolfsburg in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie. The 10-time winners went down 2-0 in Germany last night. A controversial Ricardo Rodriguez penalty put the hosts ahead in the 18th minute, and Max Arnold doubled their advantage soon afterwards. In last night’s other game, Paris Saint Germain were held to a 2-2 draw at home to Man City. Kevin de Bruyne put the visitors ahead with a clinical finish, before Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Adrien Rabiot turned the game around. However, a deflected effort from Fernandinho secured a draw for City to give them a slight advantage with two away-goals, ahead of next week’s return leg.
