"When you lose you can't be happy," Zidane said afterwards, "but we have to be proud of what we've done.

"We have to congratulate our opponents because they played well.

"We don't have to look for excuses, we lost both games, but the most important thing is that I'm proud of this team.

"We've done all we can on the pitch, but sometimes it doesn't work out.

"City deserved it."
