“Feyenoord makes a historic comeback against Manchester City in the Champions League”
Hey Koura: On a night that will remain engraved in Champions League history, Dutch team Feyenoord made one of the greatest comebacks of the tournament with a 3-3 draw against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
The match witnessed exciting moments that turned the tide, making Feyenoord the first team to avoid defeat after falling behind by three goals under the leadership of legendary coach Pep Guardiola.
This tie was not just an additional point for Feyenoord in the group, but rather a historic achievement in Guardiola’s career, which extends over 900 matches as a coach, as he has never lost a three-goal lead.
This reflects the strength and determination of the Dutch team in the face of the strongest opponents.
Feyenoord coach Brian Brisk described this performance as “legendary,” considering Manchester City “the best team in the world.”
He pointed out that this result may be an incentive for Liverpool coach Arne Slott, who is preparing to face City on Sunday, but stressed that Slott “will need an exceptional effort to achieve a similar result.”
Manchester City looked like it was on its way to achieving a comfortable victory after goals from Erling Haaland (two goals) and Ilkay Gundogan, but Feyenoord rose up in the final minutes and scored a hat-trick in just 15 minutes, stunning the defending Champions League champions.
This match is only the third match in the history of the Champions League in which an English team lost a three-goal lead, as Arsenal had previously surrendered its lead against Anderlecht in 2014, and Liverpool against Sevilla in 2017.
With this draw, Feyenoord sent a clear message that nothing is impossible in football, even against the greatest teams and most skilled coaches.
