When Nunes got hurt, one fan wrote on social media, “Oh my f**king god Nunes’s finger…”
“How can I mute a picture?” asked someone else. “That picture of Nunes is enough for me.”
“THAT VIEW OF NUNES’ FINGER,” said a third fan. “Oh my god, that was awful.”
“OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED TO NUNES’ FINGER?” someone else wrote.

“Oh my god Nunes, that’s horrible,” said a fifth.
EPL Bible City held on to win 3-1 on the night and 6-2 overall, which means they are still in the running for the Champions League.
Once an England and Liverpool defender, Stephen Warnock said on BBC Radio 5 Live, “A really comfortable night for Manchester City.” Because of the first half, the game was never in danger.

The only bad thing about Pep Guardiola for me is this. He has three young players on the bench, so now is a great time to put them on the pitch and let them play.
Real Madrid, a big team in Spain’s La Liga, also made it to the last eight on the same night. They tied RB Leipzig 1-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu. At the end of it all, Madrid won 2-1.
Now, City’s attention will be on this weekend’s exciting Premier League match at Anfield against Liverpool.
