MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester City advanced to the Champions League quarter-finals despite suffering their first home loss in over a year, going through 5-2 on aggregate after a 2-1 defeat by Swiss champions Basel on Wednesday. The evening began positively for City, unbeaten in their last 12 Champions League home matches, when Brazilian Gabriel Jesus put them ahead in the eighth minute. Runaway Premier League leaders City were content to play their trademark possession football but without any real threat in attack. In the second half we forgot to attack. The second half was really, really, poor," he said.
