In the upcoming clash against Real Madrid on Tuesday, Manchester City players understand the importance of maintaining focus throughout the game. They cannot afford to make any errors, even for a split second.

During a recent Premier League match between Leicester and Everton, where the stakes were high for relegation, the match analysts for both teams emphasized the significance of avoiding mistakes.

Similarly, City versus Real is a crucial Champions League semi-final, where one error can change the outcome of the game.

While data analysis and tactical instructions are crucial for success, players know that a single lapse in concentration can make or break the game.

This was evident in last season's semi-final when City played Real. Despite having control of the tie, City still failed to advance after conceding a goal in the 90th minute.

Manchester City players are well aware of the significance of staying focused and avoiding mistakes in their upcoming clash against Real Madrid.
