Another week of Champions League football saw several players return to old grounds or face former teams to battle out on Europe's elite platform and the game provided neutrals with loads of fun while fans went back home sad or happy or even with areas of improvement.
The goal of every football match is a GOAL and goals we got on matchday despite a slow start on Wednesday for some teams who ended the first half on a goalless draw.
Attention zoomed on Erling Haaland who faced former side Borussia Dortmund while Robert Lewandowski returned to Allianz Arena in Barcelona's colours.
On match day 1, Lewandowski scored his first Champions League hattrick for Barcelona but Dayot Upamecano made it his personal mission to keep the Polish striker quiet, and he was successful as Bayern put two goals past Xavi Hernandez's side.
Barca had a lot of positives to go back to Spain with but they lost 3 crucial points in the group of death as they will next face Serie A giants Inter Milan.
The lack of goal from Lewandowski gave Erling Haaland an opportunity to catch up with him as the Norwegian striker scored the last-minute winner for Manchester City against his former side.
The goal took him level with Lewy on 3 goals.
Another forward who joined the Champions League goal race is Kylian Mbappe. He scored the second goal for Paris Saint-Germain with an assist from Messi to take his goals to 3 as well.
Right now, the trios are levelled on 3 goals and their next match will be the decider.
Leroy Sane, Orisic, Richarlison, Okafor and Shved are not also far behind with 2 goals to each of them.
Let the race begin...
