Álvarez only scored in the 84th minute
Revenge failed, series broken: RB Leipzig missed making amends for the 0-7 debacle against Manchester City and lost 1-3 (0-1) at home to the English champions for the first time in the Champions League.
Loïs Openda (48th minute) gave the 45,228 fans hope for a point with his equalizer despite the clear inferiority, but world champion Julián Álvarez (84th) and Jérémy Doku (90th + 2) deservedly shot the defending champion to victory. Phil Foden (25th) had previously given City the first lead. At the third attempt, coach Pep Guardiola’s team won in Leipzig for the first time. This leaves RB with three points after two games. The next opponent will be former European Cup winners Red Star Belgrade at home on October 25th.
