Neymar reduced the deficit, yet Paris held on for their first win in the group after a 1-1 draw at Ajax two weeks ago, while Barca failed to build on a narrow 1-0 win over APOEL of Cyprus in their first outing.

Barcelona's previously watertight defence looked rather fragile against a PSG side who started with all guns blazing and were soon rewarded.

Sergio Aguero had put Manchester City ahead with a fourth-minute penalty against AS Roma.

Francesco Totti then became the oldest goal-scorer in Champions League history as Roma held Manchester City to a 1-1 draw in an entertaining Group E encounter.

Chelsea got the breakthrough their first half dominance deserved against Sporting Lisbon, and the only goal of the match from a set-piece on 34 minutes. A far post cross from the left flank by Eden Hazard was met by a Serbia's Nemanja Matic and his looping header drifted over the head of Sporting captain Rui Patricio and into the back of the net.
