City rout Dortmund as Inter stay perfect, Barcelona held

Manchester City eased to a 4-1 win over Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday to stay unbeaten in the Champions League and Inter Milan kept up their perfect start, while Barcelona salvaged a point at Club Brugge.

Phil Foden struck twice and Erling Haaland netted against his former club as City beat Dortmund to climb to fourth on Wednesday.

Foden's two sublime finishes came just in time to remind England manager Thomas Tuchel of his quality before the German names his final squad of the year on Friday.

Named captain for the night, Haaland led from the front and showed no mercy to his former employers with his 27th goal for club and country in just 17 games this season.

Waldemar Anton’s consolation was the least Dortmund deserved for a late rally but Rayan Cherki rounded off the scoring for City in stoppage time.

A first European defeat of the campaign leaves the German club down in 14th.

Haaland was handed the armband by Pep Guardiola as Bernardo Silva and Ruben Dias dropped to the bench with one eye on Liverpool's visit to the Etihad on Sunday.

Dortmund had only lost once in their 14 previous games this season, 2-lat Bayern Munich last month.

However, the visitors were undone by City’s quality in the final third to continue the trend of Premier League domination so far in this season’s Champions League.
