Manchester City City: Table-topping Arsenal made it six wins from six and cemented their place at the top of the league phase table with a 3-0 win against Club Brugge, while Manchester City City emerged victorious 2-1 from their trip to Real Madrid.

Superb Noni Madueke and Gabriel Martinelli strikes helped Arsenal move to six wins from six in the league phase. One of seven changes to the XI that defeated Bayern on Matchday 5, Madueke hit a scintillating opener on 25 minutes when he held off Joaquin Seys deep in Club Brugge's half, drove forward and thundered a long-range strike into the top-right corner.

The hosts twice came close through Aleksandar Stanković later in the first half, but Arsenal responded emphatically after the break – Madueke heading in Martin Zubimendi's cross on 47 minutes before Martinelli cut in to curl a superb third nine minutes later. The return of Gabriel Jesus, out of action since January, added further sweetness for the Gunners, UEFA reports.
