Ronaldo had trained on Monday with the 10-times European champions and was expected to return to the side, having missed the 3-2 La Liga win against Rayo Vallecano at the weekend.
Real's talisman has scored 47 goals in all competitions this season and his absence will be a huge boost to Manchester City as they prepare for their first European semi-final in 45 years.
Lucas Vasquez was drafted into the team by manager Zinedine Zidane to fill the void left by Ronaldo, featuring alongside Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema in a three-pronged attack.
