"Maybe I'll Retire At 30": Manchester City Star On Intense New Champions League Format
Manchester City are braced for their Champions League reunion with Inter Milan at the start of an expanded tournament that will be "so tough" for the 2023 winners. Pep Guardiola's side beat Inter 1-0 in the final two seasons ago as Rodri's goal clinched their first Champions League crown on a memorable night in Istanbul. Inter visit the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday in City's first experience of the competition's new format, in which 36 teams compete in one table and play eight fixtures each instead of the traditional group stage with six matches.
