PARIS - Paris Saint-Germain produced a stunning second-half fightback as they recovered from two goals down to beat Manchester City 4-2 in a Champions League thriller on Wednesday, a result which leaves Pep Guardiola's side still at risk of an early exit.
"The key goal for me was the first one, because it opened up another scenario. From that moment on we were far superior," said PSG coach Luis Enrique.Both of these powerful clubs came into their penultimate game in the league phase in Paris in trouble, with 24th-placed City occupying the last qualifying spot in the 36-team standings on eight points, and PSG one point behind in 26th.
However, a win at home to Club Brugge next Wednesday should suffice as it would take them above the Belgian side in the standings.
