Champions League: Inter beat Porto, Man City and Leipzig draw

In the most prestigious club football tournament in Europe, the first matches of the 1/8 finals of the playoffs have ended.

On Wednesday, February 22, the last opening matches of the 1/8 finals of the Champions League were played. Leipzig hosted Manchester City at home and managed to salvage a draw thanks to a goal from their defender Joshko Guardiola in the second half. The English club scored through Riyad Mahrez in the first half.

Note that such a result, apparently, suits both teams. In fact, after the Croatian goal, the game completely calmed down and the teams did not create a scoring opportunity until the final whistle.
