Late Dier penalty for Monaco pegs back Manchester City after Haaland double
Manchester City's Champions League match against Monaco ended in a 1-1 draw, despite Erling Haaland's two goals for the visitors. The game was relatively uneventful until a late incident where Nico González kicked Eric Dier in the face, leading to a melee. Dier then calmly converted the resulting penalty to earn a point for Monaco. City had numerous opportunities to put the game away earlier, but their failure to do so allowed Monaco to rally and secure a late equalizer. The match was a missed opportunity for Manchester City to secure a perfect start to their Champions League campaign.
