Although City ended up only fourth in the league (which still qualified them for the following season'sChampions League) despite a strong start, the season witnessed Manchester City's most successful European campaign to date, with the Blues defeatingPSG 3–2 on aggregate to advance to the Champions League semi-finals for the first time in their history (they had never reached even the quarter-finals before). There, City were narrowly beaten by eventual championsReal Madrid 0–1 on aggregate.
