Manchester City substitutes Julián Álvarez and Jérémy Doku combined for late goals to lead the title-holders to a 3-1 win at Leipzig in the Champions League on Wednesday.
Álvarez fired the ball inside the far post in the 84th minute after Doku picked him out on the edge of the penalty area, and the Argentina star returned the favor for Doku to seal the win on a counterattack in injury time.
Erling Haaland, who was quiet early on, drew a save from Janis Blaswich before the break, when Leipzig forward Loïs Openda saw his shot deflected out for a corner. It was the home team’s first and only effort of the first half. While City maintained its grip on possession, Leipzig’s threat on counterattacks was more pronounced as the home team displayed more ambition going forward.
