From the source

Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca is facing his first real challenge. After beginning the season brilliantly and not having to deal with any real losses, the last three matches have been far less fun.

The hope was that it would change against a feisty Bundesliga club, RB Leipzig, on Wednesday in Champions League play. The task wasn't going to be an easy one, though.

Leipzig was going to make scoring a challenging thing to do by playing so deep on defense that they might as well have had 10 keepers.
