Having already sewn up first place in Group G, Pep Guardiola's youthful side impressed in Belgrade, with Champions League debutant Micah Hamilton opening the scoring with a fine first half finish. Oscar Bobb doubled the visitors' advantage after an hour at the Rajko Mitic Stadium, producing a similarly delightful effort after some nice skill.

Newcastle United were robbed of a huge three points in the Champions League on Tuesday evening, drawing 1-1 with Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League after Kylian Mbappe's controversial 98th-minute penalty. PSG may have started the brighter of the two teams in Paris, but Alexander Isak was first to get his name on the scoresheet. There was some lovely work from Lewis Miley and Tino Livramento in the build-up, but it was the Swedish forward who provided the crucial touch after firing home from close range. What a goal. Starts with the deep run from Miley to create space, ends up with a Messi-esque run from Livramento. Alexander Isak doing what he does best. That's a huge goal, and a huge shock to the group. Got to maintain focus and physical levels here. — Sanjay (@nufcsanjay) November 28, 2023 Tino Livramento - what a prospect. Fearless, good touch/decision-making. Great run across edge of #PSG area in build-up to Isak goal. #NUFC #PSGNEW — Henry Winter (@henrywinter) No...

Manchester City are on the brink of the Champions League knockout stage after beating Young Boys on Wednesday night in a third successive group win. Two goals from Erling Haaland, one from the penalty spot, made the difference on an evening that wasn't exactly vintage from the reigning European champions.

Kevin De Bruyne has insisted that the outcome of the 2022/23 UEFA Champions League final won't define his career at Man City. The 31-year-old has cemented his legacy as one of the Premier League's very best midfielders ever during his time at Manchester City, winning five league titles and two PFA Players' Player of the Year awards. 2022/23 was one of KDB's best of his career thus far with the midfielder bagging a stunning 24 assists in all com Pet itions as City won the league, FA Cup and reached the UEFA Champions League final . It's that aforementioned Champions League final which many feel will define this trophy-laden era for Manchester City.
