Moussa Dembele scored twice as Olympique Lyon stunned Manchester City with a 3-1 victory on Saturday to move into the semi-finals of the Champions League where they will face German Giants Bayern Munich.
It is the first time in the coveted championship's history that two French teams will compete in the semi-finals of the competition with Paris St Germain facing RB Leipzig in the other Franco-German game.
The result also means that it is the first time since 1991 that no team from England, Spain or Italy will compete in the semi finals of the Champions League.
Man City vs Lyon Breakdown
Lyon took the lead in the 24th minute with a fine finish from Maxwel Cornet, who spotted Ederson off his line and beat him with a low drive from the edge of the penalty area.
City drew level through a Kevin De Bruyne side-foot finish in the 69th minute and pushed forward in search of winner but were caught out on the break.
Dembele broke free and Ederson's outstretched leg couldn't keep his shot out of the net as Lyon went 2-1 up in the 79th.
Lyon responded to that let-off by taking advantage of chaos in the City defence with Ederson pushing out a low shot from Houssem Aouar and Dembele striking his second to cement the upset victory for Lyon.
Ironically, Lyon had only finished seventh in the French league but have eliminated Juventus and City to give themselves a shot at the final.
"Different year, same stuff. I think the first half wasn't good enough, I think we know that, we started slow, we had not many options, but the second half we played really well... it's a shame for us to go out in this way," a disconsolate De Bruyne told BT Sport.
"We need to learn. It's not good enough, and that's it," he added.
