Man City keeper Hart: I just did my job

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart played down his heroics after their 0-0 draw with Champions League semifinal opponents Real Madrid.

Hart was modest about his own performance but, after a largely quiet night, his reflex stops to keep out efforts from Casemiro and Pepe again underlined his importance to City.

The 29-year-old has been consistently excellent throughout City's run to the last four.

He said: "I did my job, and we are still in it.

"We are playing against good teams, so I get a lot more to do. In the Premier League people don't necessarily come here to win, as a good result against us is a draw.

"But in the Champions League there is no place to hide, it's all about winning and we play against some real quality.

"It's important that I did my job and we didn't concede, but it has gone now."
