Pep Guardiola felt Manchester City had cleared a psychological hurdle after reaching the Champions League semi-finals for the first time since he took charge.

City overcame a scare to see off Borussia Dortmund in their quarter-final, coming from behind to win the second leg 2-1 in Germany and prevail 4-2 on aggregate.

The result ended City’s run of three successive defeats at the last-eight stage and took Guardiola into the last four for the first time in five attempts with the club.

One aspect of which he could be proud was the performance of 17-year-old England international Bellingham, who shone in both games.

Terzic said: “The only thing we don’t know about Jude is his limit. He has so much potential and talent.

“He is a great boy who wants to improve. We need to find out what is his limit and try to push him towards this limit. Tonight the whole world saw what he is capable of.”
