Well... in his defense... he did play well last season in the CL.. fingers crossed.

 

Glik misses the return leg due to yellow card accumulation. Great acting skills by Sane.

No Glik, at least Jemerson will be back?

 

There it is.. Sane shreds through Monaco's defense and finds Sterling on a cross into the box who tucks it past Subasic.

Mancs 1-0 Monaco

 

Gotta go coach a game, best of luck to Monaco!

 

Dam and as I leave, El Tigre Falcao with a beautiful diving header ties the game in The Ettihad!

1-1

 

TERRIBLE by Subasic.

El Kun equalizes thanks to Subasic's butter hands.

 

Falcao with a piece of MAGIC!

absolutely class chip over Caballero and he makes it 3-2 in favor of Monaco.

 

DAMN! El Kun answers with a piece of skill himself! Aguero burries an absolute GEM of a volley off a Man City corner.

3-3

 

John Stones with the potential winner for Man City! Taps in a header from Yaya off a Chino Silva corner.

Man City has rallied back to go up 4-3.

 

Man City starting to rip Monaco's defense apart.

5-3 Man City goes up two.

 

Gotta hate this scoreline if you're a Monaco fan.

 

Poor second half from Monaco. Had all the momentum and then lost it.

 

Was waiting for the keeper to dive but he didnt. The Man City keeper kept them in the game more than once.

 

Should've held and defended the lead after it went 3-2. Jardim paid dearly for his poor in-game management.
