Manchester City is 1st Team Through to Knockout Stage Despite Scoreless Outing in Day Full of Draws
Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League was downright uneventful, and I say that as an avid soccer fan. Five draws headlined the day, including a scoreless match dominated by VAR (video assistant referee) between Manchester City and Copenhagen. But for City, a draw was all they needed to punch their ticket to the knockout stage. Only three teams were winners on Tuesday, including Chelsea, RB Leipzig, and a shocking upset from Maccabi Haifa over Juventus. More matches are needed to fill out the Round of 16, but Man. City holds the first ticket.
Highlights (Matchday 4)
Man. City draw Copenhagen (0-0)
