Welcome to the Evening Standard’s Champion League LIVE coverage.
Manchester City scored two late goals, including a 90th-minute winner from Raheem Sterling, to beat Schalke 3-2 on another night when the video assistant referee was a talking point.
After Leroy Sane equalized for 10-man City in the 85th minute with a curling free-kick against his former club, while Sterling got the better of Bastian Oczipka after chasing a long clearance from goalkeeper Ederson Moraes and calmly finished into the bottom corner.
Trailing to Sergio Aguero's 19th-minute goal, Schalke needed help from the VAR in scoring two penalties during a chaotic seven-minute span at the end of the first half.
The German team was awarded the first of its penalties when Nicolas Otamendi was adjudged to have handled a shot from Daniel Caligiuri. After a delay of nearly four minutes — the referee wasn't helped by the pitchside monitor reportedly not working — Nabil Bentaleb converted from the spot in the 38th.
The midfielder did so again in the 45th and this time the decision was more straightforward after Fernandinho, playing as a makeshift center back, tugged back Salif Sane at a free kick.
Otamendi was handed a second yellow card in the 68th for a foul on substitute Guido Burgstaller but City still managed to recover in Gelsenkirchen.
Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid took a huge advantage in their heavyweight Champions League last-16 tie with Juventus, earning a 2-0 home win thanks to late goals from Uruguayan defenders Jose Gimenez and Diego Godin in a tense, incident-packed game on Wednesday.
