City are through the group stages of the Champions League and on to the knockout phase.
Lyon are the only team to score two goals against City this season and they did it twice, beating the Angels in the first match of the competition—and at Etihad Stadium! I thought, “Here we go again” but City won their other three matches in Group F and come out with the third highest goal difference at +9 in the entire competition, behind only Munich, +10 (4-1-0) and Madrid +10 (4-0-1). Lyon also qualify for the knockout round. Other qualifiers
Group E: Munich and Ajax.
Group G: Madrid and Roma.
Group H: Juve and Man United. So United go to the knockouts and yet...the lead story on ESPNFC is “Fellaini spares Mourinho, Man United blushes.” Oh...They got there, and got that lede because they won 1-0 at RayJay over Young Boys. HELD: Lede justified. Oh dearie me.
