City eventually held on to win 3-1 on the night and 6-2 on aggregate as their defence of the Champions League continues.
Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, former England and Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock said: “A really comfortable night for Manchester City. The game was never in jeopardy because of the first leg.

“This is my only downside with Pep Guardiola. He's got three youngsters on the bench and it's the perfect chance to put them on the pitch and give them some game time.”
On the same night, Spanish La Liga giants Real Madrid also sealed their place in the last eight after a 1-1 draw against RB Leipzig at the Santiago Bernabeu. Madrid went through 2-1 on aggregate.
City will now be focused on this weekend’s mouth-watering Premier League clash against Liverpool at Anfield.
