The 22/23 Champions League went underway with the group stage fixtures being played out to a conclusion for a number of teams. Here is what went down on September 6, the first night of matchday 1.

  • Borussia Dortmund 3-0 Copenhagen
  • PSG 2-1 Juventus 
  • RB Salzburg 1-1 AC Milan
  • Sevilla 0-4 Manchester City 
  • RB Leipzig 1-4 Shakhtar Donetsk

Chelsea stunned in Croatia 

Dinamo Zagreb are unbeaten across the league and Europe, and were able to get the better of the 2021 Champions League winners in front of a loud home crowd. Mislav Orsic gave his side the lead in the 13th minute, following a solo goal on the counter. 

Chelsea’s performance across both halves was nothing short of shambolic, with Thomas Tuchel’s side struggling to play passes accurately. Kepa Arrizabalaga got a rare start between the sticks, and did quite well with his opportunity. The Spaniard was the only silver lining in an embarrassing night for the Blues. 

Haaland and Mbappe score a brace 

The rivalry seems to be on the verge of breaking out, with both young strikers scoring a brace on the opening day of the Champions League. Mbappe scored twice early in the game to give PSG their first three points. Haaland scored a poacher’s finish on either side of half time to make short work of Sevilla.

Incredible scenes from Shakhtar  

The Ukrainian side haven’t played in over six months and won’t host games in their home country due to the war. They have had to sell off a majority of their foreign players, but still pulled off a miraculous win against Leipzig in Germany.
