Jack Grealish experienced an unforgettable evening as Manchester City faced Real Madrid in the Champions League. Grealish played the full 90 minutes in a 1-1. After the match, Grealish spoke with BT Sport, where he had a clаsh with Dani Carvajal, who was criticized for a challenge in the first half. Manchester City’s new signing also revealed that he received heartfelt text messages from his mother, who said that the players he is playing alongside were the ones he dreamed of as a child.
Grealish said, ‘You have a text from my mum, and she says they’re the players you dreamed of as a kid. Everyone in the world is watching, I put myself in that position, right?’
The England international added, ‘We talked before the match that these are the things you play with your feet, these are the things you dream of. It really feels like a dream.’
‘This year, we have a new team, different players from last year. One thing we have is a perfect experience and a few experiences.’
‘We just have quality. I’ve never felt more empathetic when stepping onto the pitch having these players in front of me.’
‘Yeah, it’s nothing special. They let us have a few first and then they had a high period.’
‘The manager says to keep it all. Playing against Carvajal is tough.’
‘People told me to see what he would do. It was a bаttle.’
Grealish has been a standout performer under Pep Guardiola this season and is likely to start in the second leg. He has played 45 matches, all in this campaign, having already settled into his big-money transfer from Aston Villa
