Manchester City have not let themselves be annoyed by the favorite scare Club Bruges. The Belgians had surprised so far, won 2-1 at Leipzig and fought for a 1-1 draw against Paris Saint-Germain.

The French prevailed at home against RB Leipzig in an attractive game 3-2. Kylian Mbappe gave the home team the lead, but Leipzig fought their way back and made it 2-1.

And, as expected, the English showed difficulties with coach Diego Simeone’s team. Mohamed Salah and Naby Deco Keita got Liverpool on track early. But Atlético fought their way back into the game. Antoine Griezmann put together a double pack. The Frenchman was also the focus of attention in the second half. But more than he would have liked. Because Griezmann had to shower after 52 minutes and a red card. Salah with a penalty secured Liverpool the away win. In the second game of the group, Porto and AC Milan dueled. The dragons won just 1-0. The Milanese are still waiting for the first point on matchday three.

Also in the second half the Borussia stood next to their shoes. The BVB was literally demonstrated. Antony and Sébastien Haller skort for the home team. In the end, BVB travels home with a 4-0 clap from Amsterdam. Ajax takes the lead. In Istanbul, Sporting Lisbon achieved their first win of the season in the highest European club competition.
