Mahrez's winner was his second direct free-kick goal in the Champions League - his first coming for LeicesterManchester City produced a superb display to come from behind and take control of their Champions League semi-final with victory against Paris St-Germain in France. City's Champions League history is littered with disappointments in the latter stages of the tournament, often mired in tactical confusion or ill-luck - not so here. Paris St-Germain suffered defeat when leading at half-time in the Champions League for the first time since March 2001 against Deportivo La Coruna. Kevin de Bruyne has been directly involved in nine goals in his past eight Champions League appearances in the knockout stage (five goals, four assists). He became the fourth City player to reach double figures for Champions League goals after Sergio Aguero (36), Raheem Sterling (21) and Gabriel Jesus (16).
