City come up against the Spanish La Liga side on Tuesday with kick-off set for 20:00 (UK) as we look to enjoy a night to remember at the Etihad Stadium.
It’s not the first time we have been in this position as our captain knows all too well.
Pep Guardiola’s side produced a stunning performance to beat Los Blancos 4-0 in the Champions League semi-final second leg in 2023 as we progressed to the final in Istanbul against Inter Milan.
Bernardo enjoyed a Player of the Match display that evening, bagging the opening two goals in a display seen by many as the greatest-ever display by the Blues.
He wants another memorable evening in this week’s latest encounter.
“It’s not a Real Madrid night,” Bernardo said.
“I think we need to have a Manchester City night because we’ve had many of those when people didn’t believe in us and things have gone well.
“Madrid have had many nights in the last few years and what we want is to create an atmosphere of belief in the stadium and early as possible, to score a goal.
“With one goal, the atmosphere of the whole stadium will change.”
