Champions League: a jewel of Haaland delivers City, Juve loses again ... What to remember from the evening

2022-09-14T21:09:08.534Z


While PSG played against Haifa, the rest of Europe also faced off in a great evening of football full of surprises.


Evening of close matches in Europe.

If PSG suffered to win in Israel against Haifa (1-3), there were cold sweats in the other games of the evening too.

Particularly for Manchester City, who were led on their lawn by Dortmund before Erling Haaland scored an incredible goal against his former teammates.

At the same time, Juve disappointed again against Benfica.

City return Dortmund thanks to stunning Haaland

Unlike Robert Lewandowski on Tuesday night against Bayern, Erling Haalnd had absolutely no mercy against his former club.

And he even showed them how much they already miss him.

84th minute of this Manchester City-Borussia Dortmund dominated by the Yellows and Blacks, the Norwegian is on the receiving end of a cross from the outside of Cancelo's foot and beats Meyer with a Zlatanesque gesture, a resumption of the exterior of the acrobatic left worthy of the greatest.

The fatal blow for the Germans who, until now, were not doing too badly.

Far from being ridiculous at the Etihad, they even opened the scoring on the return from the locker room thanks to Jude Bellingham, who cut off a center from Reus with a good header (1-0, 56th).

In the process, Pep Guardiola makes three changes and his City returns the match.

10 minutes from time, the Skyblues picked up the score thanks to a fine long shot from defender John Stones (1-1, 80').

It was less than 5 minutes before Haaland's goal.

This City definitely never doubts for long.

Juve can't do it

It's starting to get seriously complicated for Juventus.

Beaten in the first match by PSG at the Parc des Princes, the Italians once again lost, this time at home, against Benfica Lisbon.

And yet, the former Marseille Milik had opened the scoring with a header in the 4th minute of play. But Mario, from the penalty spot, then Neres, allowed the Lisbon people to win.

They suddenly share the head of the pool with Paris (6 points), while Juventus and Haifa are virtually eliminated with no points.

Real are doing well, Chelsea are still trampling

In the other games of the evening, it was hard for Real Madrid, who took 80 minutes before taking the measure of Leipzig.

Without Karim Benzema, it was midfielder Federico Valverde who found the opening ten minutes from the end, before Asensio finished the deal (2-0, 90th + 2).

The Merengues are alone at the top of their pool ahead of Shaktar Donestk, who conceded a draw against Celtic Glasgow (1-1).

In other games, Napoli easily dominated Rangers (3-0) while Chelsea, for the first game of their new coach Graham Potter, could not do better than a draw at home against the Austrians of Salzburg.
