Derde keer, goede keer: Erling Haaland schenkt Manchester City dan toch zege tegen strijdvaardig Leipzig

In dit artikel:

Manchester City won 2-3 at RB Leipzig after twice surrendering a lead. Leipzig goalkeeper Maarten Vandevoordt was unlucky when team-mate Castello Lukeba opened the scoring with an own goal after 37 minutes. Shortly after the break equalised City through a mistake by Gianluigi Donnarumma, who was beaten in his near corner by a Leipzig counter. Enzo Fernández restored City’s lead, but former Club Brugge player Antonio Nusa quickly made it 2-2. In the 78th minute decided Erling Haaland the match by sliding the winning goal past Vandevoordt. City climbs to nine points out of twelve and stays in the European top; Leipzig remains on three points. For Belgian goalkeepers Vandevoordt, Senne Lammens and Thibaut Courtois, it was a difficult European week.
