Champions League: Enrique urges PSG to rise to Manchester City challenge
Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique called on his players to rise to the challenge posed by Premier League leaders Manchester City in their second game of this season’s Champions League league phase.
Al-Hilal maintained their perfect record in the Asian Champions League with a 2-0 victory over Qatar's Al-Sadd on Tuesday. The Saudi Pro League side's Ollie Watkins scored the opening goal in the 40th minute, following a foul by Agustin Soria in the penalty area. Watkins praised his effort, stating, "I felt like I worked hard for the team, I got my goal and that's what I'm here to do, get goals for the team."
Ruben Neves added a penalty in the 65th minute, extending Al-Hilal's winning streak. Shabab Al-Ahli from the UAE, who beat Al-Ittihad 2-1 in Jeddah, now shares the top spot with Al-Hilal, both sitting six points back after round one of the eight-match league phase. Meanwhile, Al-Ain and Iran's Esteghlal also boast perfect records after two rounds in the tournament.
