Champions League: Rashford's show, City celebrated with a player more, Sporting and Eintracht convincing

The first round of the Champions League has been completed, and it can be said that Marcus Rashford was in the spotlight tonight.

The England international arrived in Barcelona this summer with the aim of reviving his career after a dismal spell at Manchester United. And he seems to be succeeding - Rashford scored twice tonight, and "Blaugrana" defeated Newcastle 2:1 away.

Rashford scored the first goal in the 58th minute, when he headed home a cross from Kunde. Then nine minutes later he scored a brilliant goal from around 25 metres.

Newcastle only managed to mitigate the defeat until the end, with Gordon scoring a goal in the 90th minute.

He achieved victory and Manchester City, who defeated Napoli 2-0 at the Etihad.

Kevin de Bruyne returned to the Etihad tonight, having had to leave the game in the 26th minute - it was a tactical move by Antonio Conte, who sent the Belgian off after Di Lorenzo received a red card.

With a player more, City circled around the opponent's goal, but the net didn't shake in the first half. That's why it did in the second - Haaland gave the "citizens" the lead in the 56th minute, scoring with a header after an assist from Foden, only for Doku to set up the final score in the 65th minute.

Eintracht Frankfurt and Sporting Lisbon achieved convincing victories. Eintracht overcame Galatasaray (5:1) after a turnaround. Burkard scored two goals for the German team, while Knauf and Yilmaz scored, while Sanchez scored an own goal. Agun scored for the Turkish team.
