RB Leipzig vs Man City the outcome was in favor of away side.
Manchester City back to winning ways by defeated RB Leipzig 3-1 in the Champions League.
Julian Alvarez‘s wonderful curling strike sealed the three points for Man City in the final five minutes,
after the hosts had equalised against the run of play early in the second half through Lois Openda.
Jeremy Doku made absolutely sure of the win when he scored his first Champions League goal on the break in injury time with Leipzig throwing everybody forward.
Phil Foden was involved in almost everything on the night for City, and it was his goal that gave Pep Guardiola‘s side the lead early on.
The results marks back-to-back victories to start the group for City, ahead of a double-header against Young Boys after the international break.
Foden was central to everything good about City in the opening 45 minutes, and it was his shot-cum-cross that presented the visitors with their first clear opening, but Bernardo Silva failed to make contact with the ball.
Just moments later, it was Foden himself who took the shot on, jinxing past three defenders after Yussuf Poulsen conceded possession in his own area, but the effort was sliced wide of the keeper’s left-hand post.
The England international would soon get his reward for his good first-half work though, when he latched onto Rico Lewis‘s pullback,
and despite screwing his effort into the ground, his strike left Janis Blashwich helpless.

It was all City in the first half, with the visitors dominating territorially and in possession,
as Leipzig would have been more than happy to go in only one-nil down.
Remaining in sight proved crucial too, as with just their second shot of the evening, Leipzig found themselves level.
After losing possession on the edge of the Leipzig area, City were wide open defensively, and Poulsen was able to feed Openda, who shrugged off the challenge of Manuel Akanji and fire home off the inside of the far post.
Leipzig instantly came out of their shell and threw the kitchen sink at City,
and that proved costly on the break, as Alvarez returned the favour, feeding Doku,
who raced through on goal and coolly slotted past the Leipzig keeper to seal the three points.
It was no less than what City deserved, as their dominance in possession and in attack was eventually rewarded, even if they made their supporters wait.
