Manchester City cruised past the group stage quite comfortably. Their second round opponent was an out of form Borussia M’gladbach. Their first real test was against Dortmund. City’s top form defence kept in form Erling Haaland quite over the two legs. Phil Foden scored the winners in both legs who is emerging to be Pep’s missing piece in the Champions League puzzle.

Top Players

City’s best performer so far this season in UCL is Kevin de Bruyne. He has played half of the matches but broke into the Team of the Week thrice with 2 Goals and 4 assists. Ferran Torres is their highest scorer this season with 4 goals. But De Bruyne and Foden outshine the young Spanish providing goals in the bigger games. Gundogan and Bernado Silva have satisfied their boss in absence of De Bruyne. In defence, Ruben Dias alone has brought a huge improvement. Cancelo at times shifting into a CM position has caught our eyes too with his perfectly weighted creative passes.

Players To Watch

Keep your eyes on De Bruyne and Foden against PSG. Gundogan is also expected to dictate the midfield. City’s key to the Final will be Dias-Stones partnership if they manage to stand tall against the pace of Neymar and Mbappe.
