Recap
The big game of the day saw Barcelona humble Manchester City in Group C. Jordi Mboula and Cuca both found the net in the first half to cap an impressive display from the Catalan visitors.
Barca had attacked with technical excellence and verve, but their greater accomplishment was keeping City's playmakers quiet. In particular, Brahim Diaz and Jadon Sancho were struggling to influence things, according to Stuart Brennan of the Manchester Evening News:
City improved after the break but couldn't find a way through a disciplined Barca defence.
The other match in Group C saw Borussia Monchengladbach thrash Celtic 4-1 in Germany. Celtic remain winless after four matches in a group Barcelona firmly control.

The Gunners included some intriguing talent in their ranks, such as French teenager Jeff Reine-Adelaide. He was joined by promising duo Marc Bola and Krystian Bielik. Meanwhile, Donyell Malen was included in attack, per the club:
Yet, despite the more touted names on the pitch, it was Reiss Nelson who opened the scoring in Bulgaria:
The young Gunners were coasting at half-time, but they lost their flow after the break. Arsenal's passing became slow and predictable as the hosts began to press higher up the pitch.
Ludogorets' bolder approach was rewarded when defender Preslav Petrov netted the equaliser inside the final 20 minutes.
Dropping two points damaged Arsenal's standing in the group, especially when Paris Saint-Germain beat FC Basel in Switzerland. Martin Liechti scored for the home side, but his effort was answered by 17-year-old Moussa Diaby five minutes before half-time.
It took Basel just two minutes after the restart to regain the lead. Kenan Heric found the finish, but PSG hit back again through Christopher Nkunku.

The 18-year-old attacker was on the scoresheet again moments later. His final goal in the 80th minute has put PSG in command of the group.
Elsewhere, PSV Eindhoven took control of Group D by seeing off Bayern Munich in a comfortable 2-0 win. Belgian forward Matthias Verreth scored, while Austrian defender Marco Friedl put through his own net, as Bayern slipped to the third in the table.
Napoli and Dinamo Kiev were the winners in Group B, with the latter now six points clear at the top of the table.
Wednesday's matches will see vital fixtures for English duo Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur, both of whom are six points adrift in their respective groups.
