18 games unbeaten in European football, a British record

What, we beat the Rags? What’s the European record?

Ederson completed all 32 of his passes, the 32nd time he’s ended a game with 100% passing accuracy for City. Only three goalkeepers since 2003-04 have attempted more passes in a Champions League game while completing all of them (one of those was Ederson against Feyenoord in September 2017 – 33/33).

City have become the 12th team to score 250 CL goals reaching it in 119 games which is less than any other.

Viking reaches 50 PL goals in the shortest number of games.

48.

The previous record by Andy Cole was 65 games. Smashed it

The seventh time in a row when we won the group in UCL.
No other english club managed that.

Haaland fastest player to reach 40’CL goals

What a time to be a blue

You should tell that to the boring quiet guilty bastards that go to our home games.

Looking at the amount of half and half scarves at yesterday's game, there were mostly tourists in the stands. No wonder it's quiet at these matches

It’s unfortunately something we’re going to have to get used to - the tourists at games. We can’t become the best team in the world without it.

The half and half scarves need to be banned though!

Do the street vendors have an ok from the club to sell merchandise ? I doubt it. In an era where Royalties and sales are relevant as never before. We have to put up with city and scouse2 scarves in the stadium. How tacky.

They're officially produced by/for the club for CL games (I wouldn't be surprised if they're forced on clubs by UEFA as some kind of 'experience enhancement mechanism', or other corporate nonsense) - I've seen them in the reduced section of the club shop in the past.

It does actually say that on the official site (that was just after the Young Boys game), so it's actually 19 now.
But I don't think that's right that its an English record.
As much as it pains me to have to say it, the raggys did 25 between 2007-9 which I think is still the absolute record, not just British.

Someone please tell me I'm wrong.

Thing is though, it's not just European games, as I said on the red scouse thread, there were half and half scarves everywhere.

These were being sold by street vendors. Didn't go in the City shop, so I don't know if they were selling them too.

Do the club produce/endorse these?

And there also seemed to be large percentage of the population of China there as well.

Manchester United have conceded 15 goals in the Champions League this season, the most by an English side in the group stages of the competition.

To be fair they won't make it 16

Manchester City have become the first English club to win eight consecutive European Cup/UEFA Champions League matches.
