Tottenham's 3-1 win over Dortmund was one of the most eye-catching results of the night, as Spurs picked up all three points thanks to two goals from Harry Kane and one from Heung-Min Son.

Son opened the scoring in the fourth minute with a fine strike before Andriy Yarmolenko made it 1-1 on 11 minutes, curling the ball past goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and into the top corner.

However, two goals from Harry Kane gave Spurs the victory, with the striker putting in another impressive display, as highlighted by Squawka:

The game was not without controversy, though. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was denied a goal for Dortmund, and football writer Huw Davies felt it was a poor decision:

Elsewhere, holders Real Madrid eased to a 3-0 victory over Apoel Nicosia at the Santiago Bernabeu, with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring twice and Sergio Ramos adding a third.

The game saw Ronaldo scoop yet another landmark, with his second goal from the penalty spot earning him a Champions League record, as noted by Opta:

Ramos then added a third with an overhead kick, which seemed to impress Dermot Corrigan at ESPN FC:

However, the biggest win of the night came at Feyenoord, where Manchester City ran out 4-0 winners against the Eredivisie champions.

Goals from Sergio Aguero, Gabriel Jesus and two from defender John Stones, did the damage, as Pep Guardiola's side began the tournament in fine style.

Jack Pitt-Brooke of The Independent highlighted the gulf in quality on display between the two sides:

Meanwhile, it was a memorable night for Stones, who picked up a record of his own for his goalscoring exploits, per Opta:

Overall it was a good night for the English sides, while Real Madrid—chasing a third consecutive title—again showed their quality with a comfortable win.

However, the holders will know they have tougher tests to come, with a trip to Dortmund up next in the competition before they welcome Spurs to the Bernabeu.
