What to know: Man City headed into yesterday’s game with one thing in mind: win and you advance. A pretty simple equation, but it got a lot more complicated when Club Brugge got out to a 1-0 lead just before half-time. Brugge was all over City, making them look incredibly vulnerable. City fans were able to take a deep breath when Savinho, a half-time substitute, put one into the back of the bin to take a 3-1 City lead.
In overall record, City finished 22nd in the table. This means they will need to play either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich in the playoff round. The top 8 finishers in the table get a bye into the next round, but the squads who finished 9-24 in the table will go into the knockout playoffs. Only 8 of those teams advance, making for the round of 16.
The top 8 finishers in the table are as follows: Liverpool, Barcelona, Lille, Aston Villa, Atletico, Leverkusen, Arsenal, and Inter Milan.
