Manchester City Would Have Beaten Paris Saint-Germain With Better First-Half Performance, Says Iliman Ndiaye
Story updated
The story in brief
30-second readWhat can Iliman Ndiaye bring to Manchester City? Paris Saint-Germain started the game flawlessly and established a three-goal lead in the opening 32 minutes through Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele and Vitinha, leaving Enzo Maresca desperately looking for answers.
While a 2-4 defeat ultimately ensued, with PSG’s fourth goal being scored by Maghnes Akliouche, Erling Haaland managed to pull two goals back in a largely impressive second-half display from the home side.
In securing his brace, Haaland reached 60 goals in the competition and climbed to seventh on the UEFA Champions League’s all-time scorers list, overtaking Ruud van Nistelrooy, while bypassing Sergio Aguero to become Manchester City’s leading European scorer.
