Como vs RB Leipzig Official Called-up Players, Thursday, 10 September 2026, UEFA Champions League

Como Coach Cesc Fabregas has called up the following players for the UEFA Champions League Matchday 1 League Phase game against RB Leipzig, led by Demichelis. The match is at the newly renovated Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia on Thursday, September 10, 2026.

Fabregas revealed the captaincy hierarchy for this season, confirming Da Cunha as the first captain. Following him are the Argentine Nico Paz and Butez, with Milla, a surprise inclusion, making it into this special quartet in his first year wearing the Como jersey.

GOALKEEPERS: Butez, Ginelli, Sanchez

DEFENDERS: Kempf, Valle, Ramon, Dossena, Kaiki Bruno, Couto, Smolcic, Chalobah

MIDFIELDERS: Perrone, Milla, Da Cunha, Baturina, Ricci, Liberali

FORWARDS: Douvikas, Nico Paz, Diao, Rodriguez, Kean

Haaland scores twice as Manchester City beat Porto in Europe

Uncategorized

Erling Haaland scored twice as Manchester City opened their Champions League campaign with a convincing victory over Porto.

The Norway striker followed up his winning goal against Coventry on Saturday with another decisive performance, heading into the far corner before adding a second after rolling the ball home. His brace took him to 36 Champions League goals for Manchester City in just 40 appearances.

City controlled the match in Lisbon and rarely allowed Porto to threaten, giving Enzo Maresca’s side an encouraging start to their European campaign.

Haaland gives Manchester City control

Haaland had already scored the only goal against Coventry before once again becoming City’s match winner. His two goals against Porto underlined his importance as Manchester City began their Champions League campaign in comfortable fashion.

City have started the Premier League season with three consecutive victories and carried that form into Europe. Teenager Ayyoub Bouaddi also impressed, making his first start for the club during a controlled display.

Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa was one of the main reasons the score remained close for much of the first half. He produced excellent reflex saves to deny Haaland twice and also kept out attempts from Antoine Semenyo and Phil Foden.

Porto struggles against Manchester City

Porto arrived in the match having won all five of their league games this season, but they struggled to reproduce that form against Manchester City. The Portuguese side failed to register a single shot during the opening 45 minutes.

After Haaland gave City the lead, Alan Varela came close to responding when he curled an effort narrowly wide. William Gomes also failed to find the target as Porto looked for a route back into the game.

Despite those attempts, Porto were unable to seriously test Gianluigi Donnarumma before the final whistle. Their inability to create clear opportunities left them frustrated on their own ground.

Champions League setback for Porto

The victory was particularly welcome for Manchester City after three consecutive Champions League eliminations by Real Madrid. Their return to Estadio do Dragao was also far more positive than their previous visit, when they lost the 2021 final against Chelsea.

For Porto, the result continued a difficult record against English opposition in European competition. The 2004 European champions have now won only two of their past 17 matches against English teams.

Manchester City are now targeting another Champions League triumph, having last lifted the trophy during their Treble-winning campaign in 2023.

Stats BEFORE the game Real Madrid vs Inter

Real Madrid’s coach, José Mourinho, will face his former team, Inter, with whom he won the UEFA Champions League in 2010 at the Bernabéu (2-0 against Bayern Munich). Interestingly, the current Inter coach, Christian Chivu, was part of Mourinho’s starting XI in that final.

The Real Madrid team has triumphed in all four UEFA Champions League encounters against Inter this century; specifically, the Blancos are the team that the Nerazzurri have faced the most in major European competitions this century without securing a win.

Inter has lost and failed to score in each of their last three UEFA Champions League matches against Real Madrid. The only other time the Nerazzurri went four consecutive matches without scoring in the Champions League against a single opponent was against Barcelona, from 2003 to 2009.
