Manchester City drew 3-3 with Barcelona at the Camp Nou on Wednesday to raise money for charity.

Haaland's penalty at West Ham was equally as impressive, going in off the post, and led to suggestions that he could be the first-choice taker going forward. If someone turned their stream of the game on immediately after Cole Palmer's goal, they wouldn't have known the teenager had just scored for his boyhood club at the Camp Nou. He also took time to catch up with Robert Lewandowski after their three years together at Bayern Munich. Like on the opening Premier League fixture at West Ham, Erling Haaland's burst into the box was too much for the opposition, and a penalty was awarded. Some outlets claimed Barcelona were interested in signing Erling Haaland this summer before he joined City, although any home fans disappointed at missing out on the striker didn't show that on Wednesday. Phil Foden and Ferran Torres swapped shirts, while former Leeds teammates Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha shared a nice moment following their respective big moves this summer.

Cole Palmer struggled with injuries last season and has made plans to try and avoid them in future.

Having enjoyed gracing the Camp Nou in front of a bumper crowd, Palmer is keen to show the manager that he can be counted on to deliver whatever the circumstances. "Last season was tough with injury because I didn't realise how long it was going to be," he said.

Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola continues to leave the door open for Bernardo Silva to join Barcelona despite a move looking unlikely.

"There's no Bernardo Silva case and there has not been one." "I don't want him to go, he's a superlative player and a great person... "Who doesn't like Bernardo Silva?" I want him to stay. "And [Kevin] De Bruyne, [Erling] Haaland, what a team... "We want him to stay with us, but I don't want anyone who's not happy.

Manchester City have discovered their 2022/23 Champions League group opponents as they look to win the European Cup for the first time.

UEFA do highlight the importance of Rodri, De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva, though, as key to City's attacking output, with others including Joao Cancelo and Riyad Mahrez getting mentions for their roles in the team. With substitutes scoring in 38 per cent of knockout games, and more second-half goals scored than in the first, utilising his bench could be another way for Guardiola to get the best out of his squad and kill games off - especially if he's operating with a smaller group this season. City's strength is to keep the ball, run more than the opposition, and press hard whenever possession is lost. With a starting formation of 4-3-3, the report says City moved into a 2-3-5 set-up in possession with the full-backs moving up alongside Rodri, creating inside channels for the two 'number eights' to benefit from. Alternatively, van Bronckhorst noted that if De Bruyne or Bernardo dropped deep, that would drag a midfielder out and create space for the winger to exploit. Roberto Martinez, Belgium manager and UEFA technical observer, said Atletico were 'zonally waiting for City to make that difficult pass so they could win the ball back.' Willy Sagnol said Atletico preserved energy for the first three-quarters of the tie as it would have been 'impossible' to sustain that intensity against City for any longer.
