CIT TIGHT: RB Leipzig vs Man City LIVE: Haaland’s late winner sees off persistent Germans as City get back-to-back wins in UCL

Manchester City keep up their traditional mastery over RB Leipzig with a 3-2 victory on German soil, jumping up to seventh in the Champions League standings.

After a cagey opening 45 minutes, the game exploded into a thrilling, end-to-end spectacle after the interval.

City threw away their advantage twice before Haaland grabbed the winner—his 13th career strike against Leipzig.

The away side had opened the scoring against the run of play right before the break courtesy of a Lukeba own goal, but Baku smartly got past Donnarumma to restore parity shortly after the restart.

Enzo Fernandez put City back in front, yet that merely fired up the hosts to level once more through the irrepressible Nusa to make it 2-2.

Even with precious little of the ball, Haaland's stellar record in this matchup always threatened, and the Norwegian striker duly struck when Anderson laid it on a plate with a cross.

There was still room for Raum and Cherki to rattle the frame of the goal at either end, alongside Vandevoort pulling off a brilliant stop to deny Haaland a second, capping off a wild second half with the visitors holding firm.

Finishing with an xG of 2.23 against the hosts' 0.87, Maresca's side deservedly carved out the superior openings.

Defeat leaves Leipzig sliding further off the pace from the top 24, facing serious danger of an early exit.

Next up in the league phase, they face Lens—who were just hammered by Como—while City prepare to welcome Napoli.
