Match Overview

Manchester City opened the scoring 15 minutes into the game. After a long pass from Gvardiol, Haaland entered the area and stretched to lob the goalkeeper Köhn with a first-touch finish. Two minutes later, at 17, Teze equalized for Monaco. The left-back received the ball from Krépin Diatta at the edge of the area and struck a beautiful shot into Donnarumma's top corner.

At 20 minutes, right-back Vanderson, called up by Carlo Ancelotti for Brazil's friendly matches, suffered an injury and left the field visibly upset. In the final minutes of the first half, at 43, Haaland received a cross from O’Reilly and outjumped the defender to score with a header, putting City ahead once again.

During the second half, Manchester City remained on the attack and created several chances but was not efficient enough to extend their lead. At the end of the game, at 44 minutes, Eric Dier was fouled in the area after a cross. He took the penalty himself and scored, leveling the match.
