Fernando’s own goal handed Real Madrid a 1-0 aggregate win over Manchester City in the Champions League semi-final second leg at the Bernabeu.
After Vincent Kompany was forced off inside 10 minutes with an injury, Fernando’s own goal gave Real the advantage after Gareth Bale’s cross
deflected off his foot, before Bale’s superb header came back off the crossbar in the second half.
City lacked real intensity throughout both halves, with top scorer Sergio Aguero failing to touch the ball inside the area, and the hosts held out comfortably as they look for an 11th success in the competition.
Real will play city rivals Atletico Madrid in Milan on May 28, the second time the two sides have met in the final in the space of three seasons.
