Three points secured for City​

FT: RB Leipzig 1-3 Man City

Robbie Savage
Ex-Wales midfielder on TNT Sports

Very cool. Thoroughly deserved tonight, Leipzig were going for the equaliser and on the counter-attack it was great play from Haaland. It was a great pass to Doku who opens his body up and slides it past the goalkeeper.
 
CITY XI: Ederson, Walker (C), Akanji, Dias, Gvardiol, Lewis, Rodri, Bernardo, Foden, Grealish, Haaland.
Subs: Ortega Moreno, Carson, Phillips, Stones, Ake, Kovacic, Doku, Alvarez, Gomez, Nunes, Bobb.

'Magical' Julian Alvarez'​

FT: RB Leipzig 1-3 Man City

Manchester City forward Phil Foden, speaking to TNT Sports: "We know what they are about. Last time we played them, we were very good in the first half and then they came out in the second and performed."

On Julian Alvarez: "Magical. Julian has been top this season. He is someone we look to now to score the big goals. He came on and changed the game and he is a big player for us."

On Rico Lewis: "Rico Lewis was brilliant for us today. He broke a lot of lines. I am happy for him and it is nice to have another academy player on the pitch with me."

On getting back to winning ways: "The last two games have not been ideal for us. We came off the back of two rubbish results and we had to make that right."

Giving Josko the same rating as Akanji is criminal.
