Man City, Inter draw blanks

Just 13 were scored in six games, 15 fewer than Tuesday. How unusual was this? The two 0-0 draws, after just 12 games in the new league phase, is already half to the total of four in 96 games one year ago in the group-stage format. The entire competition averaged three goals per game last season.
