UCL: Man City stage a comeback win, Chuckwueze scores his first goal for AC Milan

AC Milan vs Borussia Dortmund

Tuesday, 28 November, the UEFA Champions League match between AC Milan and Borussia ended in a 3-1 home loss for the Rooseneri, despite Samuel Chukwueze scoring his team’s first goal. 

In the sixth minute, Olivier Giroud missed a penalty kick that would have given the home team the lead.

Four minutes later, Borussia Dortmund was handed a penalty, which Marco Reus coolly converted. 

The 24-year-old moved past two defenders to slide the ball into the net after receiving a pass from Davide Calabria inside the box. Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and substitute Karim Adeyemi’s goals in the second half secured Dortmund’s victory to stay top of the group.

PSG vs Newcastle United

A penalty awarded against Newcastle in stoppage time cost them a historic Champions League victory at the Parc des Princes.

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe speaking with reporters after the match acknowledged that he is feeling “flat” following Newcastle’s contentious last-minute draw against Paris Saint-Germain.

The ball was handled by Tino Livramento after a cross from Ousmane Dembele hit the defender’s arm rather than his chest.

Alexander Isak’s first-half opener was canceled out by Kylian Mbappe’s 12-yard conversion, ending the Geordies’ energetic performance in the French city.

Man City’s comeback win against RB Leipzig

After Manchester City’s historic Treble victory from the previous year, Phil Foden stated in an interview with LiveScores that his team’s goal now is to replicate it. 

The 23-year-old England star scored once and assisted on two more as City overcame RB Leipzig 3-2 to take first place in Group G of the Champions League.

Even though 2022–23 will always hold a particular position in the club’s annals, Foden is adamant that he and his colleagues can pull off their feat again.

Other matches featured, Lazio vs Celtic with Ciro Immobile double giving Lazio a win to stay 2nd on the table. Barcelona secured a 2-1 victory at Camp Nou with goals from Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix.
