PSG outgun embattled Man City in six-goal Champions League thriller
Manchester City suffered a dramatic 6-2 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Wednesday, ending their first home game since a financial misconduct ruling. The French side dominated early on, with Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele, and Vitinha scoring inside the first 35 minutes. Manchester City fought back in the second half, with Erling Haaland netting twice and Maghnes Akliouche scoring once, briefly rescuing a three-goal cushion.
PSG's Luis Enrique praised his team's performance, calling it a "scintillating" display. City manager Enzo Maresca admitted his team were "perhaps a bit unlucky" to lose, despite missing chances to equalize. The loss leaves City top of the Premier League but third in the Champions League, with PSG now favored to win the competition for a third consecutive season.
