Manchester City and FC Barcelona still have the maximum number of points following the third game in the Champions League. England’s champions defeated Young Boys Bern 3-1 away on Wednesday evening, while the Catalans beat Shakhtar Donetsk 2-1 at the Estadio Camp Nou. RB Leipzig also remained on course for promotion. With Xaver Schlager and Christoph Baumgartner (from the 58th minute) there was a 3-1 win once morest Red Star Belgrade with Aleksandar Dragovic.
Feyenoord Rotterdam, another club owned by an ÖFB legionnaire, was also able to celebrate. Feyenoord Rotterdam deservedly won 3-1 once morest Lazio Rome without the injured Gernot Trauner. There were also victories for Paris St. Germain (3-0 once morest AC Milan), Borussia Dortmund (1-0 at Newcastle) and FC Porto (4-1 at Royal Antwerp). Atletico Madrid mightn’t get past a 2-2 draw at Celtic Glasgow.
In Switzerland, Erling Haaland made the “Citizens” victory perfect with a penalty that was anything but safe to convert (67th) and another goal (86th). For the 23-year-old ex-Salzburg striker, his goals were numbers 36 and 37 in the 33rd game in the premier class. The remaining Man City goal was scored by Manuel Akanji (48th). The Swiss equalized through Meschack Elia (52nd). The English maintained a three-point cushion over their pursuers Leipzig in Group G. Bern or Belgrade (1 each) will have to be content with the fight for third place and a move to the Europa League.
Leipzig took three points thanks to goals from David Raum (12th), Xavi Simons (59th) and Dani Olmo (84th). Baumgartner did the preparatory work for the final goal with a header from the crossbar. The ÖFB offensive player brought a lot of fresh air following his substitution and had almost scored with his head before (81′). Nicolas Seiwald just sat on the bench. Marko Stamenic was successful for Belgrade, where Dragovic captained the central defense. His team is still winless.
20-year-old Fermin Lopez particularly shone in the Barca uniform. The Spanish U21 team player hit the crossbar in the 28th minute, providing ideal preparatory work for Ferran Torres, who sank the shot into the net. The offensive player then scored goal number two himself, scoring via the inside bar (36th). After the restart and especially Georgij Sudakov’s goal (62nd), the favorites began to falter. This was also because Lopez was unlucky with a shot from the pole (69th) and his brace failed to materialize.
In the other Group H game, Porto had no trouble winning 4-1 at Antwerp. Evanilson was outstanding in the Portuguese’s second victory with a triple pack (46th, 69th, 84th). Feyenoord also has six points in Pool E. Striker Santiago Gimenez scored twice once morest Lazio (31st, 74th), and Ramiz Zerrouki (45th + 2) was also included in the scoring list. Pedro Rodriguez only made the result cosmetic for the Italians with a converted penalty kick (83′). Lazio fell behind the Dutch by four points. Atletico Madrid have one point more following a 2-2 draw at Celtic. The Scots wrote to us for the first time.
In Pool F, PSG became the new leaders. Kylian Mbappe initiated the secure home win once morest AC Milan in the 32nd minute. The Milanese are still without a goal. A goal from Felix Nmecha (45th) was the deciding factor in Dortmund’s 1-0 win at Newcastle. The English and Germans now have four points, the French are two points ahead. Milan have only collected two points.
