High-scoring matches, unwanted records and an unlikely winning run – Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League round seemed to have it all. But while some of the world’s strongest teams flexed their muscles in this season’s competition, many of the tournament minnows were left licking their wounds after being on the receiving end of a demolition. CNN Sport takes a look at the highlights from another action-packed night across Europe. Manchester City has set a number of records while commanding the English Premier League in recent seasons, but it appears its dominance also stretches to the Champions League. After winning 4-0 against Slovan Bratislava on Tuesday, City equaled the competition’s unbeaten record, having not lost one of its previous 25 games, according to Opta. Pep Guardiola’s side has now won 17 times and drawn eight games to equal the record set by local rival Manchester United in May 2009. The period also includes the season when City clinched its first European title in 2023.
