Manchester City Become Only Second English Team To Achieve Champions League Group Stage Perfection

Manchester City ended the 2023/24 UEFA Champions League group stage with six wins out of six games but how many other teams have won 18 points in a UCL group?

Manchester City ended a UEFA Champions League group stage with six wins out of six games for the first time in the club's history on Wednesday.

Micah Hamilton, Oscar Bobb and Kalvin Phillips all scored their first goals for City in a 3-2 victory away at Red Star Belgrade.

City had beaten Red Star 3-1 in Manchester back in September.

Pep Guardiola's men then won home and away against RB Leipzig (3-2 and 3-1) and Young Boys (3-0 and 3-1) before wrapping up a perfect Group G campaign in Serbia.

City have now finished in first place in seven consecutive UCL group campaigns.
