PSG outgun embattled Man City in six-goal Champions League thriller

Manchester City suffered a 4-2 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in a Champions League thriller at the Etihad Stadium. The European champions, now embroiled in controversy over financial impropriety, managed to strike back after initially trailing in the second half. PSG's first goal came early in the match through Desire Doue, with Ousmane Dembele and Vitinha scoring the next two goals within the opening 35 minutes.

Manchester City's Erling Haaland equalized twice, with the Norwegian netting one goal in each half. The 10-time English champions, despite the uncertainty surrounding their future due to the guilty verdict, remain top of the Premier League. Former City manager Pep Guardiola returned to the Etihad for the first time since his departure, sitting behind the club's chairman and CEO.
