Man City thrash Schalke in last 16


Man City thrash Schalke in last 16

Premier League Champions Manchester City have humiliated German club Schalke 7-0 in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday (Mar 12).

Manchester City thrashed Schalke in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie to confirm their passage to the quarter-finals.

Sergio Aguero opened the scoring from the spot and added a second three minutes later when Raheem Sterling's backheel set him up from six yards.

Leroy Sane drilled in the third and picked up a hat-trick of assists after the break as Man City ran riot. Sterling, Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden and Gabriel Jesus also scored.

After slotting into the far corner in the first half, Sane set up Sterling with a wonderful curling cross that the England forward smashed into the top corner.

Silva pounced on Sane's cut-back to make it 5-0 before substitute Foden rounded the goalkeeper after he was played in by the German winger. Jesus made sure he had a slice of the pie with a late curling strike.

City, who came from behind in the first leg in Germany to win 3-2, were knocked out in the quarter-finals of last year's competition by Liverpool and have never won the Champions League.

The draw for the last eight will take place on Friday.
