Real Madrid scores twice late to beat Man City 3-2 in Champions League comeback; PSG wins

Real Madrid scored twice late in an electrifying finish Tuesday to beat Manchester City 3-2 to open the Champions League group stage, while Paris Saint-Germain marked its new big-spending era with an emphatic 4-1 win over Dynamo Kiev.

Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo beat goalkeeper Joe Hart in the 90th minute to cap a dramatic comeback as the nine-time Champions League winners twice came from behind for a morale-boosting victory over the English champions following a week of domestic disarray.While Madrid showed its pedigree as nine-time champion against its rich and ambitious opponent, AC Milan couldn’t seem to use one of its favorite competitions to shake off its early season troubles as it was held to a 0-0 draw at home to Anderlecht.

Also, Robert Lewandowski scored late as Borussia Dortmund kept pace with Madrid in the tough Group D with a 1-0 win over Ajax.
