Erling Haaland struck a late winner as Manchester City edged a thrilling Champions League clash with RB Leipzig 3-2.

City were twice pegged back by the enterprising Germans, who are managed by their former defender Martin Demichelis, but Haaland settled the contest 12 minutes from time.

It was his 14th goal of the season, his 13th in nine career appearances against Leipzig and his 62nd in 61 Champions League games.

City had taken the lead with an own goal from Castello Lukeba but the hosts quickly levelled through Ridle Baku.

Enzo Fernandez restored the lead but City needed Haaland’s late intervention to secure victory after the impressive Antonio Nusa struck a second equaliser.
