Midfielder Yaya Toure will almost certainly miss Manchester City's Champions League semi-final, first leg at home against Real Madrid on Tuesday after failing to recover from injury.

The absence of Toure, a former Barcelona powerhous, will be a blow to City as they take on the 10-time European champions. Pellegrini said Toure may not recover for next week's second leg.

City are playing in their first European semi-final for 45 years.
