Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden admits there's some disappointment after their 3-3 draw at Real Madrid.

Foden scored in the thrilling Champions League quarterfinal first-leg.

He said: "For the fans it must've been one of the best games they could've watched. Two great teams with the best attackers in the world. What the fans want to see and plenty of goals.

"(Real's early goal) It didn't change the game-plan but sometimes you score too early I believe in that sometimes. They responded well with two quick goals. But this team has come a long way we don't put our heads down we know we can come from behind. It's a great team to be a part of.

"With the possession we had they got a bit tired and there was a bit more space for me to come inside, as time went on the game seemed to open up a bit more. We grew into the game and we had some chances in the second half. Happy to make the most of my chance. Fantastic result to come here and do that.

"I did (his shot would go in), I felt a sweet connection with it. It's something I practice in training scoring on the edge of the area.

"Bit disappointed to go 3-2 up and not control it a bit more, we didn't keep the ball off the goal kick and they scored with a fantastic strike. We can't dwell on it there's so many positives to take."
