From the source

Erling Haaland scored a late winner as Manchester City secured a hard-fought 3-2 victory over RB Leipzig in the Champions League on Wednesday evening. The Norwegian striker struck in the 78th minute after Leipzig had twice fought back to level the scores, helping City return to winning ways and move into the top eight of the league-phase standings.

An own goal from Castello Lukeba and an Enzo Fernandez header had twice put Enzo Maresca’s side ahead before Haaland settled an entertaining contest in Germany.

Leipzig started brightly at the Red Bull Arena, with Antonio Nusa forcing Gianluigi Donnarumma into an early save after cutting inside and shooting from distance.
