Erling Haaland did it to RB Leipzig again. The Norwegian's 78th-minute strike settled a wild Champions League night in Germany, giving Manchester City a 3-2 win on match day four of the group phase after they had been pegged back twice.

It was the response City needed. Per Yahoo Sports, Pep Guardiola's side arrived in Leipzig in a mini-rut, and for long stretches the hosts refused to let them out of it — Leipzig, with just one win from their first three in the competition, twice clawed level before Haaland delivered the decisive blow. Yahoo Sports' player ratings also singled out Anderson as a standout on a night City's attack carried them through a defensive wobble.

Haaland was not in a celebratory mood afterward. ESPN reported the striker called on City to 'step up' and become more ruthless, pointing to the two surrendered leads as evidence the champions are still short of their best. It is a familiar refrain from a player who treats Leipzig like a personal highlight reel — and a warning that City's margin for error in this group phase is thinner than the three points suggest.
