GOAL! Man City 2 - 1 PSG (Jesus, 76’)⚽️

76 mins: City have come from behind to lead against PSG! This is another great move from Man City. Mahrez brings the ball down the right side before coming inside. He flicks a diagonal ball to the far post where Bernardo Silva controls a first time pass to set up Gabriel Jesus. Jesus waits for the goalkeeper to move and then side-foots his finish to Navas’ left. Calm, cool, collected stuff from the Premier League champions.
