Erling Haaland scored the decisive goal to send Manchester City past RB Leipzig 3-2 on matchday four of the UEFA Champions League group phase — a result that required City to come from behind not once but twice.

Leipzig twice drew level to peg City back, making it a fiercely contested affair. But Haaland, as has become his habit in Europe's premier club competition, provided the winning moment to secure all three points for the visitors.

The five-goal contest underlined the drama that has followed both sides through this year's group phase, with neither team willing to settle for anything less than an attacking performance.

For Manchester City, the victory keeps them on track in the UEFA Champions League group phase, with Haaland once again proving himself the difference-maker when it matters most.
