Manchester City Deserved More After Second-Half Resurgence Against Paris Saint-Germain, Admits Enzo Maresca
Story updated
The story in brief
32-second readEnzo Maresca and Man City came up short against PSG in the Champions League on Wednesday night. The eight-time Premier League champions were thunderstruck after a remarkable first half saw Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele and Vitinha shed increasing dominance onto the Etihad pitch with former manager Pep Guardiola in the stands.
Quickly exposing the flaws of City’s defence, the likes of Ruben Dias and particularly Abdukodir Khusnaov shattered under pressure ahead of a mini second-half revival that played out in City’s favour.
Erling Haaland managed to provide two goals to first overtake Sergio Aguero and become City’s most lethal goalscorer in Europe, before climbing to seventh in the all-time UEFA Champions League scoring list, overtaking Ruud van Nistelrooy.
