FT: Sporting 1-5 Arsenal Arsenal have matched the club's Champions League record for most goals in an away game. The Gunners also netted five goals at Inter Milan (5-1, November 2003) and Fenerbahce (5-2, October 2008). #bbcfootball, text 81111 (UK only - standard rates apply) or Whats App 03301231826 With respect to Arsenal, this new Champions League format is a joke. So many 5-1 6-0 4-3 etc scorelines. Similar scores were so unusual with the old format. Keith, London FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Feyenoord are the first side to ever avoid defeat in the Champions League after still trailing 0-3 in the 70th minute. FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Gael Clichy Former Manchester City defender on Amazon Prime It is not a crisis but we are talking about a huge mountain to climb. Liverpool is probably the perfect game for City to go again. They go to Anfield and they have to be 100 per cent focused. Today they did not take the chances to kill the game. You have to take chances. You can't go to Liverpool feeling sorry for yourself and you have to take positives going into that. The 40 goals today is the joint second-most on a single day in the Champions League, after 44 goals on October 1, 1997 and 40 goals on October 21, 2014. The 23 goals by away teams today equals the record of 23 away goals from October, 12 2022 FT: Sporting 1-5 Arsenal Arsenal Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to TNT Sports: "I'm very happy. It's a big result against a big opponent. We wanted to make that statement. "I felt really good energy and belief before the match. The first half was exceptional, you have to put it into practice. "We were really clever, really intelligent and really efficient, the way we attacked them. "After we conceded we showed a lot of personality to bring the game back and then we scored the fourth goal and that's when the game changed again. "You have to enjoy [it]. When you play in this competition against these team you have to enjoy it. What I loved about this team is the way that they flowed. They played with purpose. "If you want to be challenging for big trophies you have to be consistent. " FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Andros Townsend Former England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live Injuries can always be disruptive, but I am not giving Manchester City a pass and definitely not tonight. You can't use players playing out of positions and changes being made as an excuse, when you are playing Feyenoord at home and you are 3-0 up. They have still got world-class players in their squad. Maybe against Tottenham, you can make an excuse that hey had a midfield three without a recognised number six. They had no legs, but tonight, I can't make an excuse for them. FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Feyenoord Feyenoord boss Brian Priske speaking to Amazon Prime: "Unbelievable game and unbelievable evening facing, still for me, the best team in the world. Obviously they are struggling in some elements at the moment, even though they were leading 3-0. They gave away three key moments that we exploited at the end. Remarkable effort and mentality from our boys. "After 3-1 I definitely felt that my boys were ready for this and then when they got the 3-2 we felt that there was maybe something in the air tonight. On Liverpool boss Arne Slot would make of this evening: "Yes I'm sure he is proud as an ex-Feyenoord manager, I know he is following us. We definitely did everything we could to help him as well. "He had a massive impact on our club in the last three years and definitely gave me a good start with a good team and the Champions League competition. "I'm happy we could maybe help him but he needs to do the dirty job at the weekend. " FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Gael Clichy Former Manchester City defender on Amazon Prime You need to dig deep and find that form and go on the road to Liverpool and get a positive result. City have it in them. FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Manchester City Manchester City defender Nathan Ake speaking to Amazon Prime: "Difficult. 3-0 up and we played quite well and were under control, but then it all changed. "You just have to stay strong mentally. At 3-1 they then push on but I think we need to go for it a bit earlier so we could keep the pressure on them, but we stayed playing at the back and maybe invited more pressure on us. "Then when you concede the second one there is even more pressure and then we have to stay stronger mentally. " On if City gave the game away: "Yes I think we did. If you are 3-0 up at home you can never give it away like this. It is what it is at the moment. The only thing we can do is fight back and stay strong. " On if the draw feels like a defeat: "When you are three goals up it feels like a defeat when you give up three goals at home. It is tough now, a tough night, but the only thing we can do is look forward to the next one. Liverpool is a big game and it is another challenge to overcome. " On if problems are a mental issue: "Maybe it is. It is difficult to say. Obviously we have not been in this situation many times but this is where we have to show our character. When everything seems to go against us and everyone is writing us off, we have to stay strong mentally, believe in ourselves and stick together. "Every season there is a period when they write us off. We have to make sure we stay strong as a team and staff and make sure we get out of it. " FT: Sporting 1-5 Arsenal Leon Osman Former Everton and England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live I was asked at the start of the season whether I thought Arsenal were capable of winning the Champions League. I said yes, I do think so. They need to have performances like this. They need to be more positive away from home. We know they can be defensively sound, but the question was whether they can really go and take the game to somebody, like Manchester City and Real Madrid do at times. They've now done that against a Sporting side that has been undefeated here for 13 months and started the season wonderfully well. They've absolutely dominated them in every aspect. FT: Sporting 1-5 Arsenal Arsenal Arsenal goalscorer Kai Havertz to TNT Sports: "Everyone was involved. The way we played was very good and we're very happy. "We played very well and we always found the space and free men. We had lots of solutions and we did very well. "After last season's loss against Munich we wanted to do better, especially away from home. Today we wanted to turn it around and show we can win games away from home. "Today we were exceptional and we can be proud of that. " #bbcfootball, text 81111 (UK only - standard rates apply) or Whats App 03301231826 Liverpool away is the best next game for Man City in a way. They will go in massive underdogs and nobody will expect them to win and that may go in their favour. Liverpool will need to be 110% and no complacency. If they see off City, it would be a brave person to bet against them taking the title. Tim, Bristol Rodri is a massive loss for City, that's very true but what does it say about them that they can't get any kind of form or results because ONE player is injured? They've relied on him too much and now they find themselves without depth and relying on older players because they didn't do sufficient succession planning? Steven I'm sorry but why is Pep getting a free pass because he signed a new contract? Not replacing ageing players in the summer, insisting on playing a high line when 3-2 up, over-training the players to injury. Sack him NOW and get Zidane in. Ben FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Manchester City Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, speaking to Amazon Prime: "The game was fine at 3-0, playing good, but then we concede a lot goals because we were not stable. We gave them the first and then the other one, that is why it was difficult. "We lost a lot of games lately, we are fragile and of course we needed a victory, the game was good for the confidence. We were playing a good level but the first time something happened we had problems. "I don't know if it is mental. The first goal cannot happen and the second as well. After that we forget what happen, we were desperate to win and do well, we do well but don't win games. "The situation is what it is. We played a good game but at that level we can't give them away. "Right now I am not ready to think about that [need to win final three games to finish top eight]. We have to recover and prepare for the next game. If we are not able to win games like we did today it is difficult to do it. " FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Gael Clichy Former Manchester City defender on Amazon Prime You cannot keep continue making individual mistakes. You can do as much as you want but if your players individually are failing, something like this today will happen. That has happened in the last six matches. They are missing a vocal leader. A strong leader at the back. FT: Manchester City 3-3 Feyenoord Andros Townsend Former England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live We have never seen defensive frailties like this from Manchester City before. It seems to be popping up in every single game they've played recently. But I think at least it's a good thing that it's individual errors that are costing them, as opposed to the structure in which they are playing. FT: Man City 3-3 Feyenoord Stuart Pearce Ex-Man City manager on Amazon Prime This is a footballing dynasty here and to win four Premier Leagues in a row you must have superb talent and desire and all of those buzz words you associate with football. But this is unknown territory for Manchester City and they have got to adapt quickly. They have the biggest test in the Premier League on Sunday with that match against Liverpool. #bbcfootball, text 81111 (UK only - standard rates apply) or Whats App 03301231826 I didn't feel Rodri deserved the Ballon d'Or this year. .. I do now! Anders I think Erik Ten Hag is still available. Gordon, Stockport All season the media have been banging on about a Manchester club in crisis. You know the one - a tired squad, over dependent on one midfielder, with a striker who’s forgotten how to hit the back of the net, a defence who look like they haven’t been introduced to each other and a manager who can’t motivate his players - recognise them? Nick, Hampshire Aside from the 12 goals across the two games involving the English teams, we've seen 17 goals across the other five late games. Here's how they were shared out: The goals were flowing earlier on this evening too as Atletico Madrid won 6-0 at Sparta Prague and AC Milan scraped a 3-2 win away at Slovan Bratislava.
