The UEFA Champions League group stages kicked off Tuesday with some big names and by the end there were some big headlines. The match of the day was as advertised as Real Madrid narrowly escaped Manchester City 3-2. Los Blancos overcame two one-goal deficits in the final 20 minutes thanks to goals by Marcelo, Benzema, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who clinched the win with a 90th minute strike from just inside the 18-yard box.
In other news, summer signings Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva helped PSG to a 4-1 over Dynamo Kiev, while German champs Borussia Dortmund scored in the closing seconds to beat Ajax Amsterdam 1-0, and claim a crucial three points in the “group of death.”
