Goals from Erling Haaland, Player of the Match Phil Foden and Julian Alvarez ensured all three points at the Etihad and guaranteed us top spot in Group G to send us through to the Round of 16 as the seeded team.
It didn’t look possible as the team walked off at half-time 2-0 down after a Lois Openda double put Pep Guardiola’s men on the back foot at the break.

But the inspired introduction of Jeremy Doku made a big difference and the tide started to turn when Haaland pulled one back on 54 minutes – as he became the fastest player to record 40 Champions League goals.
Influential Foden drew us level on 70 minutes and we then pushed for a winner which came via substitute Alvarez, who got on the end of a fabulous 18-pass move to ensure the victory.
