Okay, so welcome to a special edition of the big interview. My name is Martin Greg and today I'm joined by the host of the Big Interview, Graham Hunter. I think we should maybe start by talking about

Real Madrid who way back in February, lost two-ones-one to Man City and the Burnabyo on February the 26th.

I think people need a little refresher course. I certainly do. Let's just wrap up what happened in that first

like game. ISCO opens the scoring, then we have a crazy last 12 minutes to the match.

The Broinac crosses for Jesus to score.

And people might remember there was a bit of debate about whether he pushed Ramos

before scoring that Heather.

Four minutes later, Sterling Skins Carver-Halle who brings him down for penalty from which

de Broinna scores, then Ramos is sent off with four minutes left for pulling back

hezus. So since that night they won the classical the

following week and then they lost their last game before lockdown 2-1 to Betis.

After the restart in June 10 wins and one draw takes them to the title by five points from Barcelona.

So that's their first championship in three years after back to back Barcelona titles.

You know the aftermath of that tie what

complexion of that tie sits now I remember speaking a lot to the athletics, city correspondent, Sam Lee, and also to a friend of mine who's a devoted city fan and ex-mus A Companyist for Paul Weller, Morning Ace.

And I suggested that City had every chance of going to Madrid

and drawing or winning, because there were a strange beast in February

Martin they were it was hard to predict what kind of Madrid you were going to get. They still hadn't established the personality that would win

them in title, which was far more blue-collar work in midfield, conceding far fewer goals, the ruthless determination that they've shown since in the league

about when whether we're playing well or average or badly. Bensima was in the middle of a spell of still putting in the same

effort and the key thing was I think that cities saw a real Madrid side that they could bob and weave and draw
