Erling Haaland struck twice as holders Manchester City moved a step closer to the Champions League knockout stages with a hard-fought 3-1 win at Young Boys slots
Haaland put City back into the lead on the artificial surface at Bern’s Wankdorf Stadium after Switzerland international Manuel Akanji’s opener had been brilliantly cancelled out by Meschack Elia slots
Substitute Julian Alvarez had an effort ruled out by VAR but Haaland made victory certain with a smart finish four minutes from time slots
The win was City’s third in succession in Group G and they could now secure their spot in their last 16 for an 11th successive year with a follow-up victory over the Swiss side at home in a fortnight slots
Celtic twice lost the lead but picked up their first Champions League point in a 2-2 draw with Atletico Madrid at Celtic Park slots
Kyogo Furuhashi got the hosts off to a flying start with his second goal in two Champions League games and Luis Palma quickly restored the lead after Antoine Griezmann had equalised from the rebound of his own saved penalty slots
Celtic were deservedly on course for a first Champions League group-stage home win in 10 years following a first-half display full of pace and purpose but they started slowly after the break and Alvaro Morata levelled inside eight minutes of the restart slots
The Scottish champions never rediscovered their spark – even after Atletico had Rodrigo Paul sent off in the 82nd minute – and their run without a home win at this level is now at 12 games slots
Paris Saint-Germain claimed a 3-0 victory over AC Milan in the Champions League to go top of Group F slots
The Parisians bounced back from their 4-1 defeat to Newcastle earlier this month with strikes from Kylian Mbappe, Randal Kolo Muani and Lee Kang-in slots
Barcelona moved a step closer to reaching the knockout stages after a 2-1 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk slots
Goals from Ferran Torres and Fermin Lopez made it three wins from three for Xavi’s side slots
Santiago Gimenez helped Feyenoord to a 3-1 win over Lazio slots
The Mexican scored twice during a convincing win at De Kuip slots
Evanilson scored a second-half hat-trick as Porto clinched a dominant 4-1 win over Antwerp and RB Leipzig’s 3-1 victory over Red Star Belgrade gave them a five-point advantage over third-placed Young Boys in Group G slots

After the euphoric evisceration of Paris Saint-Germain, this was the downbeat sequel Newcastle did not want slots
After the feelgood stories of the Geordie boys scoring in the Champions League came a tale of gritty realism, of meeting their match in the teeming Tyneside rain slots
There was no triumphant farewell to Sandro Tonali, either: instead Newcastle lost to a goal by a midfielder they considered signing in the summer, in Felix Nmecha, and who Borussia Dortmund bought instead slots
With Tonali likely to be banned for the rest of the season – he could learn his fate within days as an investigation into alleged breaches of slots betting rules nears its conclusion – Nmecha gave Newcastle an added reason to rue their choice slots
Nmecha was handed what seemed an unenviable task, hired from Wolfsburg, charged with replacing Jude Bellingham at the Signal Iduna Park slots
And if that feels impossible, his first Dortmund goal kickstarted their European campaign slots
Edin Terzic’s team had failed to find the net in their opening two games and if they looked like possible casualties in the competition’s group of death, it now looks like Newcastle could instead slots
The margins were narrow, the width of the woodwork that denied Callum Wilson and Anthony Gordon but Dortmund inflicted their first defeat in this competition since Barcelona in 2003 slots
Now Newcastle will head into the rematch in Germany without Tonali slots
If his debut season in England ends early, it also came to an anti-climactic conclusion slots
The Italian came off the bench with 25 minutes to go, making scant difference to a game Dortmund were already controlling slots
Dortmund celebrate their winning goal (Getty Images)They were everything PSG were not, boasting the combination of organisation, team spirit and running power the French champions failed to show on Tyneside slots
Newcastle could not blow Dortmund away with their power: not when the visitors had a similar speed, and were lighting quick on the break slots
Nor could their crowd intimidate them into defeat: not when the travelling Germans were still more vocal slots
Instead, they encountered a team who could cancel out their strength, with a similar emphasis on high energy slots
It was not effort Newcastle lacked, but then it never is slots
Dortmund supplied a touch of class; arguably two, given the role of a pair of players in their goal slots
Given how well they defended, perhaps it was apt it began with a challenge slots
Nico Schlotterbeck halted Gordon with an immaculate tackle, surged clear and kept going, collecting Marco Reus’s return pass and squaring for Felix Nmecha to sidefoot in slots
For a few seconds, the centre-back looked more Beckenbauer than Schlotterbeck slots
The midfielder, who has something of Bellingham’s elegance, showed his technique with the finish slots
It had been threatened slots
The opening 10 minutes could have yielded two goals at either end, but thereafter in the first half Dortmund were the more dangerous slots
The scoreline would have been greater but for terrific saves at either end slots
If slots footballing goalkeepers have captured the Zeitgeist, Newcastle have a goalkeeping goalkeeper slots
Nick Pope was their saviour in San Siro and he threatened to reprise that role slots
A first-minute stop from Donyell Malen was excellent: slots better still was a superb double save to deny the Dutchman and Niclas Fullkrug slots
Malen produced a curiosity of a performance, adopting a shoot-on-sight policy and mustering six efforts before the break slots
Yet he was a sign of Dortmund’s counterattacking menace: their speed on the transition brought back memories of Jurgen Klopp’s blistering side a decade ago slots
Kieran Trippier, so often a great strength for Newcastle, was made to look a weak link as Dortmund found space behind him slots
Newcastle sent on Tonali late on (Getty Images)At the other end, meanwhile, Gregor Kobel made twin early saves from Gordon slots
His best save came early in the second half, repelling Wilson’s shot slots
And when Wilson beat Kobel with a late header, it bounced back off the bar slots
It was not Dortmund’s only reprieve: in the 94th minute, Gordon’s shot looped up off Sebastien Haller, over Kobel and on to the bar slots
Gordon was relentless, probably Newcastle’s best outfield player, yet Wilson’s prominence was a sign their plans were going awry slots
Eddie Howe had demoted the striker and selected Alexander Isak, but he limped off inside a quarter of an hour slots
When the substitute Jacob Murphy hurt his shoulder a few minutes after coming on, Newcastle may have, in effect, lost three players, given Tonali’s imminent suspension slots
And yet Dortmund were depleted, too, minus Julian Brandt, stripped of the stricken Emre Can before half-time slots
But there was a resourcefulness and a resilience to them, a willingness to them slots
A team with a lone defeat in the Bundesliga in 2023 were not to be beaten slots
And as Newcastle lost instead, it prompted the question of whether the anomaly was this underwhelming evening or the glorious night they demolished PSG slots
