Typical City...

Typical City…

Well the first half at Eastlands was eventful wasn’t it? Man City made a blistering start and took the lead thanks to Sergio Aguero’s well taken penalty early on.

Benatia also saw red for Bayern Munich after his clumsy challenge on the Argentinian for the penalty.

If there’s one thing that’s guaranteed with Man City in Europe it’s that anything can happen and birthday boy Xabi Alonso drew the German champions level with this well taken free-kick.

The 10 men of Bayern have stll managed to have 65% of the ball and things went from bad to worse soon after as Robert Lewandowski’s brilliant header gave Pep Guardiola’s men the lead at half-time. The next 45 minutes should be very interesting.
