Get the full FC Bayern Munich vs Chelsea recap here.

Luis Enrique can’t have wished for much more. A swashbuckling attacking display that included four goals and a well-deserved clean sheet.

After a league phase campaign fraught with jeopardy last time round, Paris start their quest for a second consecutive Champions League crown in the most consummate of ways.

As for Atalanta, they toiled and stuck to their task, but will now focus on picking up their first points against Club Brugge in two weeks time.

After something of a shaky start, Ajax managed to find their way back into the game. 

Ironically, they had the best chance of taking the lead – Yann Sommer saving expertly from Mika Godts – seconds before Marcus Thuram headed the visitors in front at the other end.

John Heitinga’s men will now have to commit more men forward in search of an equaliser, which could play into Inter’s hands.

Against Atletico Madrid, Andrew Robertson and Mohamed Salah have found the net for Liverpool within first 6 minutes of the match.

What a contest we have witnessed! Both teams gave everything, competing all the way. Slavia earned a two-goal advantage thanks to a pair of strikes from Youssoupha Mbodji on his full debut, but Bodø/Glimt displayed the character they so often showed during last season's run to the Europa League semi-finals thanks to substitutes Sondre Brunstad Fet and Daniel Bassi. A breathtaking evening, with both clubs showing why they play at this level.

A pair of penalties from Kylian Mbappé helped Real Madrid turn a deficit into victory in Xabi Alonso's first Champions League game at the helm. 

After withstanding early pressure from the hosts, Marseille struck first through Timothy Weah's emphatic finish, but Alonso's side were quickly level when Mbappé converted from the spot following a foul by Geoffrey Kondogbia on Rodrygo.

Although Madrid had Dani Carvajal sent off in the 72nd minute, Mbappé struck again with nine minutes left after Facundo Medina was penalised for handball.

Borussia Dortmund and Juventus shared the spoils after an eight-goal thriller in Turin that equalled the record for the highest-scoring Champions League draw.

Khéphren Thuram and Loïs Openda both went close for the hosts in the first half, before Karim Adeyemi’s 52nd-minute finish sparked the encounter into life.

Kenan Yıldız, Felix Nmecha and Dušan Vlahović all scored in a four-minute flurry before Yan Couto's powerful finish made it 3-2 to Dortmund.

The visitors looked to have sealed victory through Ramy Bensebaini's 85th-minute penalty, but Juventus rescued a draw in added time thanks to Dušan Vlahović's finish and a Lloyd Kelly header.

Qarabağ claim a historic win here in Lisbon – and few can argue with the result. Benfica were 2-0 up after 16 minutes, but after Leandro Andrade’s goal, the Azerbaijan champions grew in confidence and made the most of their momentum to level and ultimately win it in the closing stages. Welcome back, Champions League!

Substitutes Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard strike to give Arsenal a winning start in a tight contest in Bilbao, where Athletic Club performed admirably on their much-anticipated return to the competition. 

Arsenal have failed to score in Spain in the first half. 

Mikel Arteta's men looked good but not sharp enough. Meantime Athletic have done well to defend and attack on the chances they got. 

Important 45 minutes to come.

Anouar Ait El Hadj extends the lead for Union SG. The newcomers are on fire! 

Pepi fouled Burgess inside the box, and Union SG won the penalty. Promise David perfectly sent Matěj Ková the wrong way to hit the low corner of the goal.

The newcomers take the lead.

Well-deserved win and full points for Bayern Munich. 

They had more of the ball, made more attacks and scored more goals. Chelsea did have their moments, but lapsed in concentration in the defence. 

Harry Kane with a brace. He has now scored 10 goals in six games this season. For the 22nd campaign in a row, Bayern kick off the Champions League with a win.

Santos fouls Jackson and gets the yellow card.

Garnacho, Joao Pedro and Gusto linked up for a good move but Kim was there at the right place to block the attempt.

Tom Bischof replaces Serge Gnabry. Nicolas Jackson replaces Harry Kane.

 A VAR check was done on Palmer's second goal, and he was found offside. 

Bayern 3-1 Chelsea.

Estevao, with a special pass, and Palmer made the run into the box. 

He calmly finished it to beat Neuer.

Garnacho's right-footed attempt went straight to Neuer. Easy save.

Laimer gets the yellow card for a fould on Joao Pedro.

Olise fouls Cucurella and gets the yellow card. Looks like the German fans loved it.

Gnabry to Olise and then Olise to Diaz.

But Sanchez made the big save before the official flagged Diaz offside.

Enzo is replaced by Estevao.

He is back on the field as Chelsea looks to bring a change.

Chalobah is injured after falling down. Looks like a shoulder injury.

— The Touchline | 𝐓 (@TouchlineX) September 17, 2025

Olise should score from there. 

Kane, with a cutback from the byline, had found Olise with nearly an empty goal to aim at. 

But, he looked a bit casual with the finish there, and Sanchez, with a big dive, made the save.

Huge chance for Harry Kane. 

Laimer made a good run in the middle and then found Kane. 

Kane nearly went one-on-one against Sanchez, but could not beat him from a tight angle from left of the box.

Kimich with a cross pass found Kane, and Kane's toed-pass found Diax on the left. 

However, Diaz's right-footed shot went straight to the Chelsea goalkeeper.

Neuer, who is now the oldest Bayern Munich player to play in the Champions League, makes an easy save as Reece James' timid shot went straight to him. 

Although we thought he was fine, but after a run, he is limping. 

The leg took a big blow after the tussle with Gusto. 

Boey has replaced him and goes to right-back. Laimer moves over to the left.

The Bayern defender is fine and is up and running, 

Stanisic is down after a tussle. He is getting medical attention.

We are back from break.

Bayern replaced Tah with Kim.

Terrific first half. 

Chelsea started well, but Bayern kept their shape and made a comeback. 

An own goal and then Kane converted the penalty. But Palmer's strike made sure Chelsea stayed in the match. 

A huge 45 minutes to come. Stay tuned.

The last attack of the first half converts into a corner for Bayern as Cucurella deflects the cross from Olise.

2 mins added. 

Sanchez punched away the corner from Kimmich but it fell rightly for Olise to go for a left-footed volley. 

It missed the target though.

Olise again is able to play a crucial pass inside the box. 

This time, he found Kane. But, Kane's attempt was blocked and deflected for a corner.

Awful defence from Chelsea. 

Olise found Laimer easily with a through ball right. 

However, Laimer's shot went wide by a few inches.

Despite only being in his third full season, Cole Palmer has already scored against:

Yellow card for Tah for a foul on Joao Pedro

Yellow card for Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca for dissent. 

GAME ON!

Cole Palmer scores a stunner to bring the score down. 

Reece James won the ball back for Caicedo found Palmer with a great pass. 

Palmer carried on and found the net with a left footed strike from the edge of the box.

Bayern 2-1 Chelsea.

Harry Kane calmly sends Sanchez to the wrong side and hits the back of the net with a low penalty.

Bayern 2-0 Chelsea.

He did not give it initially and looks like it is a penalty for FC Bayern Munich.

Kane was brought down by Caicedo and it is a penalty.

Probably the final action of today. 

Bob found Savinho, whose attempt was blocked and deflected away for a corner by Bayindir.

4 minutes have been added. 

Haaland goes off to a standing ovation as he is replaced by Oscar Bob. 

Silva is replaced by Ake. 

Burno's attempted shot went through the defender,s and Casemiro, who was there at the near post, could not deflect it into the goal.

Amad did well on the right to dribble past defenders and enter the box. His pass for Mbeumo got defelcted away for a corner. 

This time from the centre, Mbeumo went for a left-footed curling attempt. However, it did not curl enough for a goal.

On the right, from the close range, Mbeumo tries his luck. But the angle was always tight.

It should have been 4-0!

Silva finds Haaland, who released it for Reijnders. However, Reijnders took it too deep before sending it pass the goal.

From the edge of the box, Ugarte takes his chance with a shot, but misses the target.

HE IS BACK! HE IS BACK! HE IS BACK!

Erling Haaland makes it 3-0 for City. 

Mishap from United at the halfway mark, and Silva served it on a plate for Haaland to go one-on-one and take it deep before sending it inside the goal.

City 3-0 United.

Good challenge from Dias to find Silva and his cross found Haaland doing his thing with the outside of the flying boot. 

However, it went straight to Bayindir.

Haaland was running away with the ball again. 

Luke Shaw had to take the chance to tackle him from behind and win the ball back.

Haaland was just inches away from making it 3-0. 

Bayindir was able to make the half save but the ball evantually hit the post and Silva could not tap it inside the goal. 

Inevitable! 

Erling Haaland scores for Manchester City. 

Foden to Doku and Doku found Haaland making a run inside the box. Shaw could not stop Haaland and neither could Bayindir.

Manchester City 2-0 Manchester United. 

United have tried to link up the play from the left. But, the execution in the final third has lacked so far for them.

Drogu's cross from the left is blocked and deflected for a United corner by Dias.

No changes for either team. 

City head into the tunnel with a 1-0 lead, and a well-deserved lead, you have to say.

Foden's seventh derby goal is the separator at the moment.

1 minute has been added to first half.

Haaland toe-tapped the ball at the edge of the box for the youngster. 

After recieveing the ball on his left foot, he went for a right-footed shot. 

He missed the target though. 

Doku had lost the ball on the left but Rodri was able to win it back and then looked for Silva with a through pass. 

However, his pass was blocked. 

Foul by Khusanov and United have a free-kick from a good position. 

Sesko tries to lob a ball from inside the box, but the Italian had came out early to make the save. 

Good idea from United to break the off-side trap. 

But, Mbeumo was just an inch offside there. However, his shot was not on target as well. 

Doku with another move. This time from the left. 

His cutback had found Reijnders inside the box. However, his side-footed attempt went straight to Bayindir. 

It is raining at Etihad Stadium.

Phil Foden, for the seventh time in his career, scores a Manchester Derby goal for the City.

Doku kept on going deep, and his cutback from the byline found Foden at the right place to go for a strong header. 

City 1-0 United. 

Doku's flying ball from the left nearly made Amad score a Cristiano-ish side flying side volley. 

However, he could not connect that shot. 

Manchester City are devastated to learn Ricky Hatton has passed away, aged 46.

Haaland has looked hungry from the word go, and he nearly made the ball flick over Bayindir, who looked a bit nervous there. 

Benjamin Sesko, on his first Premier League start, takes aim from 25 yards and his left-footed effort brings a save from City's debutant goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Within the first 25 seconds of the match, Haaland makes an attempt from the close range with his left foot. 

He misses the target. It was a close angle though.

Ward-Prowse is fouled by Fofana, and it is a free-kick from the edge of the 'D' box for the home side.

First yellow card for the night. Hato gets the yellow card for kicking the ball away.

Estevao received a through ball from the middle and nearly went one-on-one against the goalkeeper. 

However, he could not finish the job as he tried to delay his shot. 

Huge chance for West Ham United as Wilson had the chance to shoot but decided to pass it on the right, and Caicedo then made the clearance. 

Kyle Walker-Peters replaces Tomás Soucek.

Reece James replaces Malo Gusto. Jorrel Hato replaces Marc Cucurella. Wesley Fofana replaces Trevoh Chalobah.

Save from Sanchez as Souček's volley from the edge of the box was on target. 

Bowen did well to lob it from the right for Wilson to get high up and meet it with a header.

But, Wilson was not on target with his header. 

Andrey Santos replaces Delap.

Again from the corner, the ball was not cleared well, and Chalobah found the net with a cross-footed shot.

It is going to be a long night for Graham Potter. Many West Ham fans are already leaving the stadium.

Changes for West Ham at the start of the second half. 

Freddie Potts replaces Jean-Clair Todibo. Callum Wilson replaces Niclas Füllkrug.

After that solid start, West Ham could not hold onto their lead as Chelsa turned the game on their head to make it 3-1 for Chelsea.

Looks like Caicedo will play a bit deep tonight, and he is following Bowen all over the place.

In case you have missed it, Cole Palmer has a niggle and was injured during the pre-match warmups. He will have to stay on the sidelines tonight.

It was a good game overall. Arsenal, just like last season, was great defensively. United looked good as well, but they could not find the net. 

A mistake from Bayindir helped Arsenal get the goal, and that was the game for them. 

Thank you for watching. We will see you next time. Good night. 

Last season's runners-up Arsenal start with a win as United's tough time continued. 

It was Calafiori's goal from the corner that was enough for them to seal the win. 

United did well, especially Cunha and Mbeumo. Dorgu came close to scoring when he hit the post in the first half.

Maybe the final chance for United as from the corner, Mbeumo's header went straight to Raya. 

United appeal for another penalty as Maguire fell down inside the box. No penalty givem 

Yellow card for Lewis-Skelly as he fouled Mbeumo.

Saka went for a powerful shot from close range. But De Ligt was there to block it. 

6 minutes added to the final time. 

United appeals for a penalty as Saliba brought down Ugarte inside the box. 

Yorro to Sesko, and Sesko's back heel had given Ugarte to go for the goal. However, he was not on target. 

Yellow card for Gabriel for dissent and time wasting.

Yellow card for Dorgu for a foul on Timber. 

In: Merino

Out: Rice

Declan Rice with a free-kick from the edge of the box hits the side net after a deflection. He will not take the corner though as he has been subbed off. 

In: Maguire

Out: Luke Shaw

Good feet from Amad, but his shot did not have enough power to beat Raya. 

What a save from Raya!

Lovely from Cunha, who made a good run and played it out wide to Dorgu on the left. Dorgu's cross found Mbeumo inside the box, who jumped in the air to head the ball.

The ball dropped in front of Raya and was going into the goal.

However, Raya dived full streched to his left to make the save. 

In: Timber, Lewis-Skelly

Out: Calafiori, White

Ben White is down, injured and getting medical attention. Cunha believes he is wasting time. 

Brilliant ball from Cunha, and he found Mbeumo with a perfect pass. Mbeumo just could not get his shot away and was blocked by Gabriel. 

Seconds later, his acrobatic attempt missed the target. 

Double change from Amorim as Benjamin Sesko, who enters the fray alongside Manuel Ugarte, as Mason Mount and Casemiro make way.

In: Madueke, Havertz

Out: Martinelli, Gyokeres

Rice, who has been a bit quiet today, takes a chance with a long-range shot. But, he missed the target. 

Unlike his counterpart, Raya was able to punch away the incoming delivery from Bruno Fernandes from a free-kick near the left corner. 

In: Diallo

Out: Dalot

The head coach of the England men's football team is here to watch the proceedings. 

After a long pass, Gyokeres on the left had the chance to make a cutback and go for the goal. However, he could not control the ball and lost it against De Ligt. 

Luke Shaw found Mount with a cutback, and Mount's left-footed volley, which was on target, was blocked by Gabriel. 

No changes from either team.

Arsenal head into the tunnel with a 1-0 lead. It was an extremely open first half. 

Calafiori scored from a corner. Dorgu hit the post. Cunha and Mbeumo looked good so far for United. 

Lots of action to come in the second half. 

Stay tuned. 

1 minute has been added to the first 45 minutes. 

On his Premier League debut, the big signing of the season has not shone so far for Arsenal. He has lacked control and accuracy. 

Weak cross from Dorgu from the left. The cross was defended well by White. 

First yellow card of the day. Calafiori gets the yellow card for holding down Mbeumo.

Cunha has been a threat to Arsenal in the last few minutes. He has been sharp, quick and making moves.

His attempted cross from the left, close range, was deflected away by Raya. No United player was there to take the advantage though. 

Great run from Cunha as United looked to attack with a counterattack. But Cunha could not finish well as he shot directly at Raya, timidly. 

Martinelli went for a bicycle kick inside the box but could not connect the shot. 

Great start from the youngster. On the left, he made a good run, made a cut to his right and then went for a powerful shot. He hit the far post, missing the goal by an inch. 

Martinelli's weak right footed shot from close range was grabbed easily by Bayindir.

Casemiro won the ball back in their half and then sent a good long ball for Mbeumo. Mbeumo's shot was deflected for a corner by Gabriel. 

David Raya made a huge mistake in the goal, and as Cunha went for the goal, Raya pushed him to win the ball back.

However, the referee did not feel it was good enough for a penalty.
