Manchester City took advantage of Paris Saint-Germain falling asleep in the midfield, counter-attacking and taking a 1-0 lead through Kevin De Bruyne on Wednesday.
The Belgian midfielder only returned to contention at Bournemouth last Saturday after a layoff of over two months, but he's continued from where he left off as an influential presence for City. He latched onto Fernandinho's ball before walloping it in on 38 minutes.
