Atalanta's Mario Pasalic scored a crucial goal on Wednesday, November 6, 2019, to give Italian club Atalanta a point against Premier League champions Manchester City in the Champions League.

Atalanta had lost their last three games in Group C and needed a point to lift their fans' spirits.

Manchester City took the lead in the 7th minute through Raheem Sterling, assisted by Gabriel Jesus.

However, Atalanta changed their pattern of play in the second half to a more attacking one, and Pasalic eventually restored parity for Atalanta in the 49th minute after gaining an assist from Alejandro Gomez.

Both teams failed to get the winning goal in this encounter and had to share the points.

Manchester City are still topping the Champions League Group C with 10 points after four games played.
