straight to your inboxLyon’s Maxwel Cornet revelled in his role after helping to down Manchester City once again in the Champions League.The Ivorian bent a loose ball round a stranded Ederson to score the opening goal in Lisbon on Saturday as the Ligue 1 side upset the odds to beat Pep Guardiola’s men 3-1, and book their place in the semi-finals.It isn’t the first time Cornet has enjoyed some success against City though – back in 2018, the 23-year-old opened the scoring as Lyon won 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium during their first group stage game.

He then scored both goals in the 2-2 draw in the reverse fixture, meaning his tally stands at four goals against City in three appearances.And he couldn’t hide his delight after coming back to haunt.
