Eliminated in the round of 16 last year, PSG successfully entered the Champions League on Tuesday by dominating Juventus of Turin at home, a priori the toughest opponent in their group, thanks to a double from Kylian Mbappe. The Parisian striker, in the midst of controversy following his remarks at a press conference on a plane trip, scored two goals in the first half, two good volleys on a bright ladle from Neymar (5th) then at the end of a great combination with Achraf Hakimi (22nd). After the break, Juventus revived thanks to a goal from American Weston McKennie. Milik had an equalizer but ran into a fine save from Donnaruma.
The beautiful rise to the game of Eden Hazard
On a siding at Real Madrid and condemned to starving playing time, Eden Hazard replaced Benzema, injured in his knee, after half an hour of play against Celtic, where Real won easily (0-3 ). The Belgian seized his chance perfectly by scoring a goal and delivering an assist for Modric. What a joy to see the Red Devil smile again on a football field, he who had not found the net in an official match since January 20th. Interesting in his ball touches and his deflection game, Hazard gained confidence as the match progressed. Just over two months from the World Cup, this is rather good news for Roberto Martinez. Finally a new start for our compatriot?

Double from Haaland, assist from KDB
Group G had started earlier in the evening with Dortmund’s clear victory over Copenhagen (3-0). Manchester City did even better than the German club by winning 0-4 in Sevilla. The inevitable Erling Haaland scored the first goal on a service from his captain Kevin De Bruyne (20th). Phil Foden, first a scorer (58th), turned into a passer to offer the double to Haaland (67th), and Ruben Dias went there with his own goal (90th + 2) to seal the final score at 0- 4. In addition to Kevin De Bruyne, starting as captain and replaced in the 78th minute, the match gave Adnan Januzaj the opportunity to make his debut for the Sevillian club, rising at the same time in place of Isco. Manchester City are ahead of Borussia Dortmund in 1st place in Group G, while Copenhagen and Sevilla have yet to conquer their first points.
