Manchester City came from behind to stern Paris Saint-Germain in their first leg of the Uefa Champions League on Wednesday evening.
It was a match of two halves for PSG. Les Parisiens dominated the first half of the match as Angel Di Maria, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe bombed forward with electric threatening in the flanks.
A breakthrough came about in the 14th minute when Marquinhos tapped a corner kick to head the ball in the net to gift the hosts the lead.
But the Blues grew into the game in the late stages of the first half staging a come-back in the second half. Kevin De Bruyne scored in the 64th minute before Riyad Mahrez scored another in the 70th minute to give Pep Guardiola’s side the lead.
PSG would then be reduced to 10 men after Idrissa Gueye clumsily tackled Ilkay Gundogan. The match ended 2-1 in favour of Manchester City ahead of the second leg tie with all to play for to qualify for the final.
