Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus hailed Wednesday night’s game at the Bernabeu as “one of the most important” of his career.
The Brazilian scored a second-half equaliser as City overturned a 1-0 deficit to defeat the Spanish giants 2-1.
Jesus told AS that the performance was one he’ll remember for years to come. “I’m very happy. Wednesday was one of the most important and significant goals of my career.
“It was a very difficult game. We all know the importance and size of Real Madrid. That is why I say that I am very happy and sure I will always remember this great night.
“But now we have to focus on the return leg. There is nothing done or resolved, we do not trust: it is Real Madrid. They have a lot of quality and we have to go very concentrated.”
However, the player refused to be drawn on his future, “I have a contract with the City and I am very happy with the season I am doing, being able to play, score goals and help my team. I am very happy with the year I am having and I don’t think about those topics.”
