Man City took the lead against Borussia Dortmund thanks to an error by Emre Can in middle. He lost the ball, City countered and Kevin de Bruyne scored.

Man City took 20 minutes to force the first big mistake by Borussia Dortmund. Emre Can's major error in midfield led to the first goal of the match

The Dortmund player tried to pass the ball in midfield and Mahrez intercepted it. The Algerian quickly countered given Dortmund's defenders had pushed forward. 

Mahrez found De Bruyne, who saw Foden on the left hand side, whose pass to the Algerian was overhit. 

The winger appeared again, he stopped the ball with his foot by the by-line and waited for De Bruyne to get away from his marker and then De Bruyne beat Hitz.
