City fans attempted to wind up Vinicius Jr after Rodri beat out the Brazilian to win the Ballon d’Or, before the defending champions snatched a 3-2 first-leg lead at the Etihad Stadium.

City supporters revealed a banner with Rodri, who beat out Madrid’s Vinicius Jr for the Ballon d’Or, adding the words in reference to an Oasis song: “Stop crying your heart out.”.
Jamie Carragher has hit out at Manchester City fans over a tifo designed to antagonise Real Madrid before their Champions League playoff.
