Story updated

The story in brief

35-second read

PSG inflicted a first defeat of the 2026/27 season on Man City on Wednesday night. On a night dripping with drama - from the flares igniting in the Manchester streets to the blazing pre-match display inside the ground - Luis Enrique’s side delivered a brutal opening-half blitz.

Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele, and Vitinha sliced through Enzo Maresca’s side with staggering speed to build an unassailable three-goal lead, ensuring that despite City’s brief second-half revival, the back-to-back UEFA Champions League winners were utterly outclassed on their own turf.

Haaland scored his 60th UEFA Champions League goal to overtake Sergio Aguero as Manchester City ’s all-time leading scorer in European competition. Meanwhile, his second goal saw him surpass Ruud van Nistelrooy to move into seventh place on the tournament’s all-time scoring list.
