UEFA Champions League: RB Leipzig 2-1 PSG, Borussia Dortmund 3-0 Club Brugge, Juventus 4-1 Ferencvaros

RB Leipzig came from behind to beat Paris St-Germain (PSG) 2-1 at home in a pulsating UEFA Champions League Group H clash on Wednesday.
The French club, however, finished the match with nine men, and the outcome left RB Leipzig second in the group on six points from three games.
They are tied on the same tally with leaders Manchester United who defeated them 5-0 in the previous round but suffered a shock 2-1 defeat at Istanbul Basaksehir earlier in the day.
Third-placed PSG, who defeated Leipzig 3-0 in last season’s one-off semi-final in August, have three points, level with bottom of the table Istanbul Basaksehir.
Angel Di Maria gave the visitors an early lead and then missed a 16th minute penalty kick.
Then, Christopher Nkunku levelled in the 42nd minute with a crisp low shot from the edge of the area.
Emil Forsberg turned the tide with a 57th minute penalty kick after Presnel Kimpembe handled an Angelino cross, having missed a gilt-edged chance shortly after the break.
From there on things only got worse for PSG as Idrissa Gueye was sent off in the 68th minute for two bookable fouls.
Kimpembe was also dismissed in stoppage time for a second yellow card.
Di Maria and Moise Kean had goals ruled out for offside in quick succession shortly before RB Leipzig’s equaliser as PSG dominated.
Ultimately, the visitors missed injured forwards Neymar and Kylian Mbappe as well as striker Mauro Icardi.
In-form Erling Haaland scored twice as Borussia Dortmund surged to the top of their UEFA Champions League Group F with a comfortable 3-0 victory over hosts Club Brugge on Wednesday.
Borussia Dortmund scored all of their goals inside the first 32 minutes as they overwhelmed their hosts with some incisive attacking play.
Belgian international Thorgan Hazard gave the German side the lead in the 14th minute, before Haaland scored twice.
Borussia Dortmund top the table midway through the pool stage with six points from three matches, one ahead of second-placed Lazio.
The Italian side were held 1-1 at Zenit St Petersburg earlier on Wednesday.
Club Brugge are third with four points.
Haaland missed the weekend Bundesliga victory at Arminia Bielefeld with a knee injury.
But he showed no ill-effects as all his predatory instincts were on display to take his goals tally at Borussia Dortmund to 26 in 28 games since he joined the club in January.
The visitors looked the more dangerous side from the start.
They secured a deserved opener when Club Brugge goalkeeper Simon Mignolet could only palm a Thomas Delaney cross into the path of Hazard.
Mignolet had a chance to redeem himself but let the resulting shot burst through his hands.
Borussia Dortmund added to their tally four minutes later as Mignolet could only parry Haaland’s close-range header and the striker turned in the rebound.
The Bundesliga side kept pressing forward and Haaland soon bagged his brace.
This was when former Club Brugge right-back Thomas Meunier raced in behind the home defence.
He laid the ball off for a tap-in by Haaland and a fourth goal in his three UEFA Champions League games this season.
Borussia Dortmund coach Lucien Favre will be pleased with the comfortable manner of the win as they prepare for a clash with domestic title rivals Bayern Munich on Saturday.
Alvaro Morata scored twice before two defensive mistakes helped Juventus to a 4-1 UEFA Champions League win at Ferencvaros on Wednesday.
Juventus, bouncing back from last week’s defeat by FC Barcelona, were too slick for their spirited opponents, who are back in the group stage after a 25-year absence.
The Serie A side cantered home at a soggy Puskas Arena to go second in Group H with six points from three games.
Ferencvaros have one point.
“Games can become easy only if you play well,” said Juventus captain Giorgio Chiellini.
“In the first half we were a bit slow with possession, but we raised our tempo in the second half and we managed to earn another important win.”
Juventus got the ideal start when defender Leonardo Bonucci threaded a pass down the right touchline to set Juan Cuadrado away.
The Colombian’s low cross was tapped in by Morata at the far post after seven minutes.
In spite of the early setback, Ferencvaros acquitted themselves well with Tokmac Nguen and Oleksandr Zubkov both having chances but sending shots wide.
Cristiano Ronaldo was always a danger for Juve, however, and nearly added a second after combining with Morata.
But the ball was taken off his foot by Miha Blazic as he was about to shoot.
The Portuguese forward set up Juve’s second on the hour with a low pass into the area which Morata swept home after a Weston McKennie dummy.
The Italian champions were gifted their third goal as goalkeeper Denes Dibusz failed to control Blazic’s awkward backpass.
Substitute Paulo Dybala then slipped the ball into the empty net in the 73rd minute.
Eight minutes later, Dibusz’s attempted pass was intercepted by Dybala and Lasha Dvali turned the ball into his own net as he tried to clear.
Franck Boli pulled one back in the 90th minute, scoring at the second attempt after Wojciech Szczesny saved his first effort.
