Champions League Takeaway: Penalty Pain in Paris, Bellingham Again, Arsenal Click into Gear, Dangerous Dortmund, and Everything Else!

Champions League Takeaway: Penalty Pain in Paris, Bellingham Again, Arsenal Click into Gear, Dangerous Dortmund, and Everything Else!

Hello Rank Squad!

It's time for another Champions League Takeaway - a midweek bonus chow down on all the week's UCL action. The biggest competition in Europe returned for Matchday 5, and we’re amongst it to take a look at the action from both Tuesday and Wednesday nights.

We start with Tuesday's action, with three big takeaways on Newcastle's penalty pain against PSG (and Lewis Miley's brilliance), Borussia Dortmund emerging as a competitive force in knockout competition, and Manchester City needing a kickstart to find world class levels, before rounding up the rest of the action.

Then in Part Two, we take a look at Wednesday - talking the very enjoyable chaos of Galatasaray 3-3 Manchester United, Jude Bellingham stepping up to the mark yet again for Real Madrid, and Arsenal's attack firmly clicking into full gear against Lens, and then run through everything else that happened too.

It’s Ranks!
