  "account": "Manchester City suffered a significant setback as Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) defeated them 6-2 in a highly entertaining Champions League match at the Etihad Stadium. The French champions took control early, scoring three goals within the opening 35 minutes via Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele, and Vitinha. City managed to respond in the second half, with Erling Haaland scoring twice, but it was too little, too late. PSG's manager, Luis Enrique, praised his team's performance, stating they created \"a huge amount of problems\" for City throughout the match. City's coach, Enzo Maresca, acknowledged the result, saying, \"We did enough to deserve something more.\" The match came after an independent commission found Manchester City guilty of extensive financial impropriety, potentially leading to severe sanctions unless they appeal the decision. Despite the adversity, City remains top of the Premier League, but PSG's dominance in the Champions League looks assured as they head into the competition as the favorites for a third consecutive title.",
  "summary": "MANCHESTER: Paris Saint-Germain further soured the mood at the Etihad Stadium as Manchester City’s first home game since the guilty verdict on widespread flouting of Premier League financial rules ended in a 4-2 Champions League defeat on Wednesday.",
