Foden nominated for Champions League Goal of the Tournament

With Pep Guardiola’s side trailing 2-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu with less than half an hour remaining in the quarter-final first leg tie, the England international received the ball on the edge of the box, dropped his shoulder then unleashed a vicious drive into the top corner to equalise.

Josko Gvardiol handed the visitors the lead soon after before Federico Valverde’s unstoppable volley restored parity once again.
